>Just an FYI here. I discovered that half of the sump bolt holes in the
block 
go all the way through the lip. One could replace the short 5/16 SAE bolts 
that the DPO used with longer ones that go all the way though. Then just
use 
nuts on the ends. . Not pretty, but mechanically sound.<

Not mechanically sound either 'cos these faces that the bolts/nuts will
come 
up against on the block are not machined to flats!  Machine these to flats 
and you might be a bit mechanically sound - if not even pretty!
