Good morning, Gui.
I'm glad that things are not too bad. Thanks for the picture of the sump filter, which appears to be an original one (a proper fit, unlike others which are available.)
Btw, has the roller bearing on the end of the crankshaft been removed when you stripped the engine and replaced for the photograph? It appears to be fitted 'inside out.'

I have a spare cam follower guide block surplus here which you can have as my contribution to your rebuild. Let me know if you want it and I will post it to you.
