Hello Howdy and welcome to the forum.

I might be mistaken, but that doesn't look like it could be polished out to me.

That actually makes sense! The first "cut" is the deepest. Smile

Good luck with polishing.

I’m with Ferret on this one. In fact, I’d already have one on order Smile

I am NOT ordering that piece, and have already ordered polishing tools which are only a fraction of what the crankcase cover would be. Tain't worth it. I'll post a pic afterwards to let ya know.

$128 on partfish. I hope you can polish it out though. Please post pics if you get it done. Would love to see it. I don’t have the skills to make that look good and that’s why I’d have to replace it.
