We used to rebuild a lot of flathead Mopower engines in the machine shop where I worked in the 1970's. I remember one in particular, It was a six cylinder with over an inch of muddy grit all over, and about two inches of grit on top of the flanges where the oil pan bolts. I was chipping away the grit when I found a four inch long Snap On crescent style wrench. I still have that wrench along with several Craftsman wrenches the same size. When I got more cleaned off the engine I found a brass shell from a very large bullet used for a soft plug, and it looked like it worked quite well.
