If he hadn't run into the snow bank is there a guarantee that the crank

Wood prop. There is no guarantee that he didn't have a faulty crank.
Then again, the engine had run fine for decades and the crankshaft
snapped less than 25 hrs.after the snow bank stoppage. Feel free to
assume that it was a coincidence.
