Strangely there were no cracks on mine, but I have heard about the cracks on other 1300 owner's coils too.

I checked the tank and it's clean. I checked the coils and they look good as well. Pictures below. I installed the gas line which is
Fuel injection hose. Then I tried starting her up. It backfired like a gunshot before it started and idled perfectly. However the oil light stayed in. The oil level is correct and I changed the oil a few weeks ago. WTF? Oil pump?

Like I said, it wasn't hard to figure out if they were cracked.
