UPDATE #4:
I took my first look at the engine this morning. (So far) not too bad at all.
I will need a new cylinder head (fins bent), cylinder head top tin (bent), engine stop switch (bent) and spark plug (tip broken off). To go along with this the cylinder head and top tin will need repainting. There was no physical or paint damage observed whatsoever anywhere else on the engine block including the coil mounts, recoil shroud mounts, shroud, or carb/tank assembly. , etc.
I performed a compression test (90PSI) and leak down test (5-10% depending on which of my testers I use), which is no change from the "Pre- UPS damage" readings I took.
The recoil handle pulls out nice and smoothly, the valves are going up and down and there are no weird noises heard when I turn the engine over.
Soooooo..... The question that begs to be asked is this: With what (little) damage I have found on the EXTERIOR, is it even justified/needed to open up the engine and perform an INTERIOR inspection? I have not actually test-ran the engine - YET
I welcome and appreciate your opinions.
