I agree that it's either a rod or possibly bearings. I wouldn't run it until you get it straightened out.

There are a lot of metal flakes in your pic. I would guess that damaged rod bearings would be the "best case" scenario. I agree with Alex and would not run the engine anymore until the damage is rectified.

Honestly, I would have prefer not have to, but I can't wait to open that engine and see the damage.

I feel I will have hard time to find out spare parts for this engine. I did a post (here) regarding this and no one seems to really know where I can find those.

Anyway, we'll see when the beast is open and as time goes. Thanks for your cues guys!

Have you spoken with the dealer that ordered the axle for you?

I dropped him a message but I’m still waiting for his return.

Other than that, I’ve found an Italian company that manufacture spare parts and given to their catalog, they have my engine model and all the parts, gaskets, crankshaft, everything. But again, I’m still waiting for confirmation they can ship to North America.

Just got a return from the dealer and they can order my engine spare parts! I couldn't have wished for better.
They also provided me both a spare parts manual and a repair manual. I will upload those manuals on my previous post (here) so if ever someone need them.

That's awesome; dealers and the supply network have been so out of sorts lately, no matter the brand, so it's great to see they are able to provide the parts you need.

I looked for the post about the home made Case 4x4 tractor.
Here is a y tube video of it.

He has several other videos of the build process.

@Dave55 Thanks for sharing! Wow! Amazing tractor this guy built! I will look for more about the process.

There are several other builds on Y tube that are along the same lines.

That's great news, Bessiere! I was worried that you would need to use it and cause more damage. It's nice to have good support.

I haven’t start working on it yet. I will post pictures when I do.
