Apologies if covered before, but many cylinder blocks now have small cracks radiating out from the centre head stud. The general consensus seems to be use another one if you have the choice.

I'm curious, has anyone actually suffered an engine failure as a result of these cracks?
And if yes, what happened? (Water in the bore? Stud pulled out? Or something more dramatic...?)

Anyone found a way to repair them?

Thanks
Chris
