DME Replace

Hi there, I am looking at purchasing a 97 porsche boxster S, beautiful car, I am not paying a whole lot for it, but I found out what is wrong with it is the previous previous owner supposidly left the top down and flooded it, so this other guy buys it, expecting to fix it up, and realizes that someone has robbed the DME off of it, and to get a new one from porsche is like $6000, plus another anti theft computer to match them up. He says from what he knows this is the only thing wrong with it.
Looks like a clean car, and none of the wires have corrosion. What do you guys think?
Can I find a DME off another porsche very easily, or would I be looking at buying another complete engine with the DME for it?
How much would I be looking at for a DME, or another engine with its own DME?
For some reason it has a DME somebody tried to get to work from a 996 or a 911.
Thanks for any help.
