This is the only number I could find on the case:

VC (WV logo in some kind of recycle logo)
G108287

It's a 2.0L that had D-Jet on it. The heads are 914 2.0L heads.

I got the engine with the car (spare engine). The PO claimed he took it of from a 914.
Anyone recognizes this?

We're getting somewhere!

So the logo means that this is a recycled/replacement case, probably VW Canada. It seems to be pretty new, all clean and shinny. No leaks at all

I'm rebuilding it since the DAPO broke one head, probably when he packed the engine for me. Then he drained the oil and let it stay with the sump open so all the dust could get in.

There isn't too much dirt inside the open sump but who knows?

Should I completely split the case to clean it or can I rinse it somehow without taking everything apart? Again, the case is perfectly sealed now.
