The car was flat bedded to Series 9 with a "rod knock".
Turned out to be a flywheel knock. Make sure things are torqued up and it doesn't hurt to use some thread locker. Those 5 bolts cost this engine its bottom end. Here are the pictures. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Had the same thing happen to me and my engine had just a couple thousand on it. Ever time I took my foot off the pedal there was a loud rumble. When I found out what it was 3 of the 5 flywheel bolts were sheared and the flywheel and end of the crank looked worse than yours. I reused the flywheel bolts I had before and looking at some other ones I had after the problem I noticed they were stretched, a costly mistake. I had the end of the crank and the flywheel resurfaced and it's ok now. Also got some new hardened bolts and will never reuse used bolts again.
