It's a bit hard to judge the condition of your crankshaft only by that picture. If it's worn where the pulley sits, it's bad news. No stainless collar sleeve can be used there because the woodruff key is in the way. Perhaps laser rewelding and grind down would help, but not simple...Here is a couple of pictures of the crankshaft. I don't have it with me right now to take a better picture
Where do you get those aluminum pans? They look really niceHad the same issue with mine. Washed , power washed, could not get the grit out. Realized with the aluminum finned pan The baffle is screwed in so it became an easy fix after the baffle was out. If the baffle in the steel pan cant be removed, you will never know how much sand is left.
If you get the alloy pans ( came on fastback Alpines in usa and on h120, GLS and holbay motor cars in UK) you need the 2 special long bolts fot the front.Where do you get those aluminum pans? They look really nice
