The other day my 03 blaster motor locked up. There was also a hole in the lower end case next to the clutch. I took the clutch cover off and the clutch basket was in a 1000 pieces. Also the rod that the clutch basket sits on is bent. After removing the clutch basket and all the debris I can now freely move the crank and piston. My question is should I be able to move the crank and clutch by hand with the plug in place? Or do I have more internal damage. Thanks
 
got a pic of hole in case you are referring to?
you could leak test and compression test it.
i would say you could rotate engine by hand..sometimes especially if it is not on the compression stroke.
 
It should spin freely till the top of the stroke, when the piston reaches the top of the cylinder the compression should make it difficult.
 
if you need any parts for your rebuild check my engine part out under for sale forum there is a ton of stuff even on top of the link i have to the selling on ebay just pm me if you need a part i didn't not post to ebay
