If an engine has been involved in an accident and you do not PERSONALLY
know that the prop never struck anything, then you need to get a crank and
prop shaft runout test. Quite simple but if you aren't going to do this
yourself - any Rotax mechanic can do it for you. This simply checks
the runout of both the prop shaft and crankshaft (must remove gearbox) to
see if they were bent (using a typical runout dial indicator). The specs
are published in the Rotax manual. See if the seller will let you have this
done before purchase.

Morph is this also possible to check on 503 and 582s ?

In theory - if the prop drive flange is running straight then you shouldn't have a problem either way.
