You can "Magnaflux" the block assuming the block is cast iron or steel and the block is stripped down and cleaned for rebuilding.
A compression test will determine which cylinder(s) are at fault.

What are the main features of cylinder block?
Helium is used to detect leaks.
Cracks can be welded and then the head can be resurfaced.
The cylinder would lose compression, causing the engine to lose power. I've personally never heard of a cylinder breaking, its usually parts near and around the cylinder that break, although if the block cracks, I guess that could be considered breaking the cylinder. The cylinder can also lose compression due to rust holes which can develop over time.
Cast iron heads.
The manifold block directs the hydraulic fluid into or out of the cylinder.
Inspection and repair of a cylinder block involve assessing the engine component for cracks, warping, or wear that can affect performance. During inspection, technicians may use tools like pressure tests and visual examinations to identify any defects. If damage is found, repairs may include machining to restore surfaces, welding cracks, or replacing damaged parts. Proper inspection and repair are essential to ensure the engine operates efficiently and reliably.
There is an engine block which houses all the moving parts of an internal combustion engine, and a cylinder which is a part of that block, the cylinder is where the piston moves inside and where combustion takes place.
