Does your block have a casting #? If so post the casting number & someone will try to help you.

Maybe worth looking for a 173 block ?
4.19" X 4.33" dimensions .

Are you measuring the bore of the liner or the bore in the block the liner fits into? It sounds like you have a 152 or 164 block, not a 179 block. Your 4.53 bore measurement is big for any of those liner bores but looks like it could be the block bore, the liners fit into, for the 152 or 164. It sounds small for the 179 which has a 4.19 liner bore.
