The key in the flywheel has broken.
You will need to pull the flywheel.
Carefully remove the damage to the crank with a fine file
lap the flywheel into the crankshaft with some fine grinding paste ( not valve grinding paste ) I use Brasso.
Then clean everything and reassemble with a new key.
No oil or loctite on the taper.:thumbdown:
