Loose Flywheel, Crankshaft done for?

You made several unsuccessful repairs. Either:
A) You don't have the resources to do the repair properly or
B) The crank is beyond repair

If it's A, then a good machinist will be able to fix it
If it's B, then a good machinist will be able to tell you.
Find a good machinist and get their opinion. I'm betting that the crank is trashed.

Your option 4 sounds like the worst possible thing to do - you haven't fixed the root problem.

well i don’t think you can repair the crank better than what i did while it’s installed in the engine.
i’m still searching around for options, but going back to the swapping out the motor + new clutch and flywheel sounds best.

And, realistically, you probably can't do better with the crank out. Take it to someone who can determine if the crank (and the clutch/flywheel) can be fixed. Going by the pics, my guess is that the crank is scrap metal. And I wouldn't be surprised if the clutch/flywheel hasn't been damaged beyond repair.

Get a professional opinion on the condition of the crank (and clutch/flywheel) before replacing everything (they may be able to tell from the pics). A real machinist might be able to fix it.
