Thinking of picking up an ML.. can a om606 fit it?

Hey guys, sorry if this is the wrong place to post. Please move/delete if so.

I'm considering picking up a 99 ML that someone is selling for super cheap because the "engine is toast." Anyhoo.. I got to thinking, if the M112 will fit in a w210 and a w163, and an OM606 fits in in a w210.. and I love diesels.. could an OM606 fit (length) in a w163?

Of course, anything can fit if you are good enough with a grinder and a welder. What I mean is will it fit relatively easily considering the scope of the swap.

Can't find anyone who has done that swap, but I am considering taking it on. Suggestions, ideas?
