Been many years ago, but as I recall it was a 56J balancer with worn rubber isolator on a 374 crate motor (service long block) installed in a 56 GH. The crank split between the #1 & #3 rod journal as I remember. It still ran fine as the rods held it together, just a steady "tic, tic, tic".
An experienced old time mechanic friend declared "broken crank" as I pulled into his shop with the engine running.
This is the only one I've ever heard of.
