Crankcase housing

I'm looking for the bottom half of the crankcase. My engine runs fine but the crankcase is busted around the bottom engine mount. Any idea where I can buy just this part? I cant find anything anywhere other than the whole crankcase assembly?

You are looking for the bottom half , the main lower portions of the crankcase / engine block?



#1 comes all in one section.


#4 is the mount to the back of the engine case. How bad is the damage, pics?

Yeah i need the piece that #4 mounts to. Its broke bad. I was gonna have someone weld it but I dont think its gonna work. I'm hoping i can find a bad engine core or something with a good used bottom half engine block.

yes,

They just have the #1 part of the whole bottom half of the engine ( engine block & bottom case ) as One Genuine MINI part number. I was hoping you could modify the new part #4 ( lower engine mount metal bracket ) in the bottom picture to work with the case. But it depends on how bad it is. Do you have a pic of the busted area?

Thanks

sorry i don't have any pictures but yeah that wouldnt work because it was leaking oil really bad where it was busted. The engine mount itself was fine its just the crankcase is busted around the area its fastened to the mount. But I found a used engine block for $500 so I'm hoping that it has the part i need. Thanks for your help though!
