Best Answer

It is the lower half of the engine block containing the main bearing caps and bearing halves. Its located between the oil pan and upper half of the block. When viewing a fully assembled Northstar engine from its side with the cylinder heads and oil pan in place, the half case can be seen in the middle

The Northstar engine block consists of an upper half (which houses the cylinders, pistons, crankshaft, main bearing halves and other associated parts), the half case (which houses the other half of the main bearing shells and main bearing caps (caps are part of the half case itself), and an oil manifold/distribution plate which is sandwiched between the half case and the oil pan. Here is a very good photo set showing all of this: http://www.caddyinfo.com/casehalf.htm
