Peek a Boo Washer
I just opened this '75 motor and see a washer on the crank gears that has a cut out to see the Woodruff key.
I have only seen solid washers used here. Is this unusual, or aftermarket or even notable?

Hmm. Just looked at another motor and it had the same style washer/spacer.
It looks like that "key" sticks through and is flush with the top of the washer, so it must need that cut-out. Parts drawing shows it like that too, #27 .....
