You guys rock! I will insist that the mechanic tries to loctite the woodruff and slightly over torque to 150 ft/lbs. thank you all for responding so quick.

Is this keyway salvagable with the Loctite 660 repair? Mechanic tells me I need new engine ej25d for my 97 Outback. I am stranded 8 hours from home (in iceland) and can not afford a new engine. Mechanic also says pulling the crankshaft and sending to a Tig welder will cost more than engine swap. Please see picture and chime in. Thanks, Hval
