I dunno, I'm 6 foot 4 and weigh 90kgs, so would certainly be on the larger size of climbers, and I had no problem getting through there. From memory I chimneyed along a bit higher rather than walking along the bottom of the crevasse.

I really don't think there's any need for a fixed rap there. Especially as it avoids the quintessential Buffalo experience of grovelling through sharp granite squeezes.
