That amount of crud in the block is normal after decades of use. I just cleaned a 2" depth of this stuff out of my 750 Berlina block, which hadn't been apart in 30+ years. As long as the head studs are secure in the block and not corroded/narrowed at some point, you should be OK. Clean the liner mating area well, esp the bevel where the liner o-rings seat. The rest of the area's not as critical to clean.
