Hows this block look?

and the pistons?

Basically what Bill's asking is, when it was machined was it a BARE block with nothing else attached?

If you ask me those bores look pretty shiny & could have done with at very least a glazebust, maybe a full rebore while it was in shop. But as mentioned it is *impossible* to say if a block is good or bad from just pics (unless obvious damage makes it definitely bad), and if you're asking about the machined finish re: fitting of MHG well, we can't see for the grease anyway. Needs waaaaay cleaning up before even knowing what to do with it let alone screwing it all together.
