KV6 ZS 180 Engine

Just had the owner of my old ZS, he is looking for a replacement engine after belting a rock in the road and putting a hole in the current engine. Have not seen it myself so can't give a more accurate picture of the damage than that. He did say he pulled straight over and turned engine off but that's all the info I have.

He wouldn't need a plenum or VIS as these were all fairly recent ish and working A ok.

Any help or advice I can pass on would be fine, have told him to add timing belt etc before installing new engine (assuming he definitely goes this route).

He is also based in Inverness.

Sounds like he is describing the sump, have asked him to send me a pic of the damage when he can.
