Looks like it was run too cool for a long time. Too cool forms sludge. Thanks for posting. Looking forward to the progress.

True, though that amount of sludge can be caused simply by the oil degrading over a few decades, especially if water somehow gets in. One time I took apart an Ultramatic that was the same way. Every component part was disgusting and required thorough cleaning. The metal had also rusted slightly at the "sludge line".

"I'm sticking with my Titanic salvage theory."

Yes! I think that Robert Ballard found this engine on the seabed, it having been dislodged from the hull where the ship split apart just forward of the third funnel!
