Just to tie up the loose ends and in case this is of use to others.
Jon E, the bores were quite worn. Ring gap middle and bottom of bore 25 thou. Gap at top 31 thou.
Bob, yes this is non detergent classic 30 grade oil.
Thanks for the opinion regarding the crank crack. I have some history with this issue which luckily did not result in any other damage but not going to push my luck again.
Many thanks.
