Hole in block!!

Hole in block!!
Ive gained a hole in my block (forged ej257). Im wondering if you guys could point me in the direction of whats happened.
The hole is above the allen key to get to the grudgen pin for the piston. If your stood looking at the engine it is on the passenger side. ( ill try and get a picture on).
After it happened i started the car for a second expecting to here a rattle from somewhere but there wasnt a rattle in it but it is down a cylinder.
Any help would be great
Thanks

It sounds like it needs stripping down for sure though,
Good luck
ps, I have blown a few gearboxes comming on boost, Things seem to go pop when the torque starts mounting.

Going to try and get it out soon and have a look.
It was down on the cylinder closest if that makes any odds.
Anyone know of any forged blocks going cheap? looks like i need one : (
