There are 6 very substantial vertical ribs in the side of the block looking from stem to stern on a 235. That kind of a crack is startling to me. Was it filled with water, frozen to -40 degrees Celsius/Fahrenheit (just showing off here), then dropped from 3 stories (What is the metric conversion for 3 stories?)
Anyway, sounds like Fox knows what he's going to do. All he needs is a big boat to go with his 235.
