I saw one on Craiglist that is gone now, it was a complete vtwin that had some sort of head damage but otherwise ok.

which keyway ? on the flywheel ???

How about taking it to a machinist and getting it dressed ??
They can do anything.
If you bought it, you made a good purchase, you will find a crank..I will look also.

Couldn't you just use a CPP adapter & a tapered clutch?

Amen, brother..

You have a ton of options, if you can get the motor for cheap..

I'll take it if you don't want it.

This is the adapter.

It'll allow you to use a tapered clutch. I imagine you could clean that rust off & do it with the jacked keyway as is.
Give Tom at Cart Parts Plus a call tomorrow.

That engine is a big score. Hope you make good use of it.
