Well unless they're giving you a discount for it then sell it

though since the front head and piston are both probably buggered and there was no oil in it, so the cranks probably mashed too.

I might be interested if its cheap, and we can figure a way to get it to yorkshire

Aye, even a knackered motor still has some value, if nothing else you could use the cams in your own engine for a wee power boost if you want (or are you restricted?) but the clutch, casings, cams, etc can all sell for enough to justify the hassle. But they might be expecting it as part of the deal, maybe.
