I am sorry to hear of your troubles. This, happening to any of us, hurts all of us where it counts

Good luck
None are immune. Expect to pay 3-4k for a running 2.5L motor with clean oil from a dismantler and I suggest putting a fresh IMS and water pump into it. Bad news but not the end of the world as we know it. The guy with a 911sc and 114k who has to do a full rebuild due to failed head bolts will cough up around $20k to get road worthy again. We gotta pay to play.
