5.0 roller block

So I have a decent standard bore block "donated" by a buddy. He told me it had a busted pan bolt. Yup. Sure does. No problem.
I put it aside and start collecting parts for a little street 331. Time to pull the block out and start prepping it. The area around the broken bolt was pretty trashed from someone's attempts to extract it. I made up a little fixture to center my drill over the hole. My drill bit doesn't do a THING. I switch to a new, cobalt drill bit. All that did was shine it up. It's not a broken bolt. IT'S A TAP!


Bottom line: Anyone got a decent standard bore roller 302 block laying around? It's either that or find an EDM.
 
I got one under my bench you can have but you're going to have to break the news to the 12 generations of spiders living in and around it that it's going.
 
I would happily provide the spiders with the one I have with the busted off tap.
That way the only spider family being displaced is the one who lived in THAT one hole.

Can I borrow yours? I just need it for mock up.
