That my first port of call seeing it turns over on a bar
Really sorry to hear this. I suggest you read the threads here.
Do you have a warranty?
If not avoid expensive JLT franchisees, and go to a decent Indy.
If it really is crankshaft then Green Oval might be a good place to start.

Who is the warranty with? Is that a current warranty, or has it now expired?
What are you thinking you will do with it? Repair?
