Problem when an engine explodes - It takes out the expensive pistons, con rods, cylinder head and possibly crankshaft.
I wouldn't risk my investment in the other parts when the block fails.

It's a cheapo CVH, hardly an investment. The pistons, rods etc will be useless in anything else as it is. TBH if the block cracks you'll notice a lack if power, oil/water consumption rather see the crank snap in half and exit through the geabox.
