Damn!
Sorry to hear that, engines are rare but they are there if you can wait.
Not sure if that could work for you but I have an engine in a box after one of the gearbox dogs failed on mine. It needs an actuating dog and a side case. It's a 2009 Tenere engine with 9000 miles on it. PM me if interested.
