C32 Crankshaft Balancer
I have done much looking before posting this. It looks like the rubber insulator might be migrating from between the balancer and the pulley. I know there was a TSB or recall on earlier cars. My concern is that I looked at another C32 before purchasing mine and the owner had just finished replacing his radiator, AC compressor and lots of other stuff due to his balancer failing. Any suggestions?

time for a new balancer
you need to get a new balancer because it will destroy either the timing cover or the parts in front of the engine - depending on which way it migrates. from what i read, they like to migrate back and grind throught the timing cover. that would suck.
