The crack above the fuel pump is common . You will know where to look on a replacement. Being two bearing alignmernt is not a problem, except for the camshaft tunnels. The top deck has to be flat. Such extensive repairs a conversation point. If the labour is yours there is little to be lost but yet more welding would add considerable expense. The main thing is to avoid the causes of such damage ie cracked crank, little end defects. if seeking a replacement remeber there are high and low chassis crankcases, and some without rubber mounts.
Successful rebuild of a 3 bearing requires vastly more skill and patience than a 2 brg. Alignment of the centre bearing is very cahallenging. (3 brg cases have been adapted for 2).
