Did I just seize

Okay there was a shipboard of oil in the pipes. The bike won't start now so I'm tearing the bike down. I notice one of the reeds was missing a bolt. The bottom case has been broken, and also the fly wheel case, only where the sprocket sits the seal is steal there. When I started it the bike fueled a 4 car garage with smoke so I killed it, and that's when it wouldn't start. I've pulled everything off besides the top and bottom end. Just discovered the frame had been snapped and welded. Also when I would try to start it I'd check the plugs and the right one would get so covered in oil it would cover the whole plug but the left side looks brand new still. I'm kinda wondering what I'm gonna find in the top end. I'm hoping the worst is just a rebuild for it. I'm worried about the bottom case be broken where the sprocket is. Opinions on what I should do that isn't gonna rape me money wise would be appreciated.

"Expensive" is relative. I would guess if I was rebuilding around 1500 to 2000.

 

And for me a rebuild on a motor in yours condition, all the upgrades the basic upgrades that make it better than stock. Including a mild trail port and stock crank being welded, clutch, billet pump n stuff.

 

But you could do it for less just dont be a cheap ass about it and cut corners. You dont want to have to do it again in 2 hours after start up.

Like green said , needs to be ripped clean down and inspected by a qualified person not someone who's not banshee specific, someone who has all the tools to measure and check tolerances on crank,cylinders head, reeds , basket . Seems like you have a basket case . That why in my original post I asked if you hydro locked it
