I think the days of cheap H22 engines are gone, so £500+ is not unreasonable. If buying an engine I'd be removing spark plugs and dropping cameras in dark places to make sure it's pukka. Even hearing it running is no guarantee it's not an oil burner either.

I have a H22A kicking about - ive taken the head off to check the pistons/cylinder walls - all looks good - it came out of an 4th gen auto so wont have been over the red line.
Wouldnt cost that much to get it checked and put back together. :)
Also got an H22A8 head and cams if you wanted the best of 4th and 5th gens
Good luck with the body shop :x
