Here is a couple more..
I got the crank back into the cases and put the bottom end back together.
Before mounting the engine back into the frame, I fixed my outer clutch basket. It was grooved pretty bad which would catch the clutch plates and never let it fully disengage. For example, it would slightly creep on me in 1st gear with the clutch pulled in and it was also hard to kick over while in gear.

I have to mill off a couple .001" or so to get the basket all smooth again.
This should be good for another season or two. For now, it also saves me $200 (price of a new one)

Here are the pics of the refreshed basket.
