So I am pretty lost. I need to replace the crankshaft because its bent. I can not for the life of me find any supplier that has a motor matching the one on my Honda HRX mower. Here are all the SN/Model numbers I could find on my mower.

Mower:
Model: HRX2174VLA
Serial No: MAGA - 2284609

Engine:
Model: GCV190
Serial No: GJAAA 2861903
Additional Sticker on Engine: GCV190A MX5 R280

Extra bit of info I found while researching: I'm pretty sure this mower is also listed as HRX217K4 VLAA on some websites, but like I said I've had no luck matching my exact engine. I found two possible cranks for my engine but can't tell which one I actually need. I think its between these two part numbers 13310-Z8D-610 and 13311-Z8D-900.

Links from my research:

I'll also attach pics of the serial and model number stickers in case I am missing something.

Can anyone help me figure out what part no. crankshaft I need? Thanks!

I came up with the 13310-Z8D-610 crankshaft for your mower. the other part number you listed is for serial numbers higher than 278xxxx

The_Implication: Do you gots da skills to do this crank shaft replacement ? :)

I like to think I do! I've done a fair bit of research and from all the videos I've watched I think I can pull it off. Hardest part looks like it'll be getting the flywheel off.

Well, you might find out if the bottom pan will come off, before ordering parts.

There's a good video series on youtube which appears a repair school filmed on the GCV engine, disassembly, reassy, etc.

I saw one of those but did't know there was a playlist, thanks for the link!

Didn't know that could cause me trouble. The video I watched made that part look easy. Is that normally a difficult task?

This is the main video I've researched

i think Fish may have been referring to the bent shaft.....

Ahh, well I hope it does because I already have a new crank on the way. Would some percussive persuasion help straighten it enough to slide it out if its not cooperating? (Hitting the bent crank to straighten it enough to slide out, not hammering it from the bottom up) Or would that be ill-advised?
