Bob,
 
I think that's a good assessment.   The damper looks very old and the 
rubber seems hard - it was on my list  to replace......

Remember, David, that it takes time for a crank to actually break in two.  
Frst there must be a small fracture, then this grows into a crack as more  
torsional vibrations occur. Then, much later the crank actually  separates.
