blown engine

[slowpoke]

wasn't able to get a look up under motor pan was off full of metal one bearing on ground looked like it spun, metal in pan was pieces of liner all chunks biggest size of pencil eraser. was told liner has dropped down and hit connecting rod and piston stuck between liner and cylinder head. question is, can liner drop that far without block being broken or am i looking at broken block as well, huge core charge if block damaged.
