Blew up engine! Need help/advice please.

My car is an 1984 240D with 198,000 miles on it. Over the past month it's been running a little noisy but I wasnt too worried because thats kind of the nature of these cars. So my wife and I are driving down the highway last night and it felt like we ran over something but we didnt. The engine died and wont start and there is oil splattered in the engine bay.....ughhh.
I think its probably the timing chain, does anyone have any ideas? Heres my other questions, anyone have a motor for sale? and do I have to put another 4 banger in there or can I upgrade to a big dog motor with maybe even a turbo? Thanks for all of your help and a I'm located in Southern Illinois..

Josh
