thanks for the help, got the line out and good to go. ill keep the engine in storage for now, its in my garage on a engine stand so i can turn it up side down and put a small amount of oil around the pistons(tip given to me be another member) so it wont deteriorate. im not going to replace the line or the gaskets, i figure if someone buys it, they will most likely rebuild it anyways, so why spend money on gaskets and such if there is a chance it might not be used or be replaced again.
once again thanks for the help.
