Is there any way to tell if a 440 crank is cast or steel (late vs early) when it's installed in the car besides looking at the harmonic balancer? Is there something different about the crank/balancer key, depth of damper bolt or threads, or something different on the rear flange etc.? Without knowing the correct balancer, will I need to drop the pan to check the crank to be sure?
