No it is not. It's just as easy as removing the spark-plugs. $15,K tool must be the PIWIS Porsche diagnostic tool which you don't need to rebuild the engine either.
Your semi retired mechanic can't do anything more for you with possible exception of storing your Box until you decide it's next destination. You need someone that knows this engine to borescope it, then remove the camcover with engine installed to further the evaluation.
