Looks familiar. Who knows what they stuffed in there, I’ve used many different ‘fixes’ but the keel hasn’t moved and there is no water intrusion.
Best is to grind all that old bottom paint off that area and wrap some fiberglass around it and bond it. Or use Marine-Tex or something similar and just check it out each year (which is what I have been doing for over 20 years). As long as the bolts are tight and not rusty, and have good backing plates, you should be OK.

Apparently the crack is hairline, not deep, not structural. And was filled -- now 1.5” wide with the filler. Apparently no one went aground - by current or previous owner (only two). Surveyor thinks otherwise and says to monitor drop and re-bed if it reappears. The bolts were clean in the bilge, no movement on the crack when two of us heaved as hard as we could. Maybe it’s fine, thoughts?
