Mine looked to have the winters snowflake ground off. It did not look like they ground down an area as large as the yenko letters. So I think the 74 block I had looked like the one with the unfortunate crack.

I wonder if these blocks have a curse. Mine, after I sold it, the guy calls me years later and says it developed a leak, and wondered if I knew about it. I said well, you spent a lot of time inspecting it, I said I got it like it is, all freshly rebuilt by someone else with the best stuff, and it is what it is. I am glad I sold it as it obviously did not hold up.
