If you break the starter nose, I will almost guarantee the flywheel or
torque converter is bad. Not only are the flywheel rivets an issue, but the
spot welds holding the ring gear on the flywheel/converter crack. Hard to
see, but gentle prying with a screwdriver on the ring gear at the spot welds
will show a crack if one exists.
