Not cracks at all, just texture left from the casting process.

I'd sell it immediately and stick the next buyer with the problem. Just to help out, I'll give you $2000 for your car.

You guys nailed it though. Other than the release agent theory since they are sand cast. Good video here. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXVLbzI3xTE"]How It's Made Engine Blocks - YouTube[/ame]
