Little JB weld .. not an issue.
Looks like the nut came off the rod bolt. Are there any other non stock inspection holes other than the chip at the bottom of the cylinder wall. Have fixed those before with a repair liner. Rod shows some discoloration from heat, rod bearing probably spun and the self destruct process started.

Not sure what im doing with it was going to rebuild it but because it the original motor to my car but dont want to deal with the chip and junk crank and dont have the money to make a 451 stroker
That crank can be turned down and reused. It will not cost that much to install one repair liner on the effected cylinder as you are going to need to re-bore this motor anyway to properly rebuild it. Of more potential concern is the damage to the reinforcing strut for the main bearing journal, there is a forge welding process that can repair that type of damage if your rebuilder deems it necessary.

i believe a 383 crank shaft is the same as the 400 . and a 451 crank is just an stock ( 413 426 440 ) rb 3 3/4'' stroke crank with b sized mains
