Steve,
The 737 would be the same as other aircraft types.
The Pilot manuals will say something like:
Exterior Inspection:
Tyres, Brakes and wheels..........Check
Nose Gear Assembly..........Check
Fan Blades, Probes and Spinner..........Check
Ask a pilot then an engineer what the dispatch limits are & the answers will be way different.
