Personally, I would get another engine rather than patch this one. The only time I heard of a rod going through a block was when the owner put in a T19 turbo and boosted it up to 24psi - he was asking for it!

Sounds almost like the shop forgot to add oil, which should have been all over the side of the engine bay. I wouldn't trust the main bearings at this point.

If you do swap engines, replace the RMS and tranny seals, do the Tbelt change and the PCV system before installing the used engine.
