Raisman/Platte makes a good crank. Someone put one in a saw ran for milling a year or so ago, still running with no issues. I've used several on 365/372 saws and no returns. Of all the cranks I've sold, no returns yet, I'd have to ask my supplier for brand.

You do not list one for an 036 on your site?

Trying them all
Crankshafts often survive other trauma to saws whether physical or engine damage so I would make the assumption there are plenty of used ones around. Is that not the case? I know I've seen lots of aftermarket ones for the 1127 series Stihls but haven't tried one as I haven't run out of OEM ones.

Purchased a new aftermarket crank for a beater Stihl 660 $25 delivered ebay. Pleasantly surprised. It miced out perfectly. Weighted slightly less (something like 96% of oem). In the future, I would try the aftermarket over used oem. At least until I was burned. deereguy
