1985 Mercedes 300D Turbo - NO RUST - Gerogia Car
This car is from Georgia and has only been up here a few years. Very solid body, no rust. Paint is faded, but looks great in my opinion. New Glow plugs, radio, oil change and filter, primary and secondary fuel filter, new water pump and housing, new Monarch hand fuel pump, new power antenna. May extras like repair manual and extra Gauge housing Now the bad news, the engine is seized, but top end OK. Injector pump rebuilt 40,000 miles ago. Great body for a project car. Put a new MB engine in it or a V8. Interior is about a 7-8 out of 10. All gauges work and so does odometer. Engine rebuilt 40K ago by previous owner.
Location: Jackson, MI $2500 obo

That shouldn't seize the engine. Seriously. You should look into that some more. There is no way that just turning the engine the wrong way by hand for a little bit would actually seize the engine.

You can re-use it if it's in good shape still. Just clean it up well, clean the spot where it goes over the cover, and clean the mating surface on the head.
No sealant required. For further help you'll want to go back to the first thread you started. You'll get more views I'm sure.
