Hi,
If the PPI passed the Car, the fact that the engine had been changed is fairly irrelevant. Better a Passed Inspection with a new engine, than a failed one with the original. Just because a Car has the original engine does not mean that it cannot fail in short order after you acquire it - no guarantees.
The only concern would be if you were thinking about short-term ownership. Then a replaced engine could affect your resale value. But, if you are considering 5+ years of ownership, any affect, if any, of having a replacement engine will have minimal impact on the resale price you will get.
These are generalities, but in this instance, the fact that the RMS has been changed in the new engine is the most worrisome factor. It hasn't gone enough miles since the RMS service to know if this fix is correct. I'd much rather have seen the RMS changed 20k mi. ago, then you can be sure they repaired it properly...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
