So my goal is to learn about the car now that I have some time to do it.

Could it be worse than this? Yes, if my Lambo had such type of failure. Money wise I guess that would be in a whole new level to fix it.

How do you rebuild an engine with a cracked cylinder wall? It's not like an old VW where you just bolt on a new cylinder. Seems to me that you MUST get another engine because if your cylinder wall is cracked on this one, you are screwed. Unless some of you know how to repair a cracked cylinder wall!
