Default Bottom End Gone

So I have destroyed my daily runner! Volvo S40, Gave it a bit stick yesterday and the bottom end bearings have failed. Making the decision to keep driving the 5 mile home at low rpm to minimise the 'ratlling' has probably cost the engine its life.
Trawling Google today I learned my lump in the Volvo is actually a duratec lump.
Readily available for cheap.

Task this week (work permitting) replace engine.

anyone local have an engine hoist?
