Would be interesting to have the other rods checked for length and to have them x-rayed to see if any others were ready to exit stage left.
Pay shipping and I'll send the leftovers to you
cause the rest of them will never see the inside of one of my engines again.
I have no complaints about them really, other than the expense of getting the block repaired.
This is the first time I have ever had a rod break, other than one broke at the wrist pin that was caused by having a rod converted from press fit to floating. (machine shop had over heated them during previous swap)

I wouldn’t use them either. Without exact measurements when they were new, checking them now would obviously be a waste.
As for x-ray, only as a learning tool at this point.
I can hear them hitting the garbage can from here.
