Run the numbers…rebuild vs purchasing a short block

Call Jimmy Guthrie at Jimmy's Engine in Ponchatoula. He may be able to price it over the phone. He also has his buddy Gene working back in his shop fairly recently, and Gene is legit.

How long are you willing for it to take? I have a buddy that rebuilt my 2001 V8 a couple years ago. He was strictly working out if his house at the time but is now a shop manager. He still works on vehicles at his house but obviously has less time now.
He's in Central just outside of BR.

I’m impressed you found a way to destroy a 4 cylinder Toyota engine in the first place

Just bought one from him. He supplies all the islands down here as well as SOFLO.
Ask for Ram.
Good luck

You might could find one at a junk yard where they have wrecked cars/trucks.
We blew the engine in a Pathfinder years ago and had a new (used) one put in. Seems like they put an Infinity motor in as replacement, but we found it at a junk yard.

I would advise finding some forums specifically for that model vehicle to start reading up on. I learned a ton of stuff about my old car and did a bunch of work myself eventually. Anything short of a machine shop, you can do yourself. Those guys who are enthusiast usually sell/trade in the parts for those cars so sourcing a new head or whatever can be much easier.
Some of us that have older cars we love to work on, buy a wrecked 2nd one to pull parts from.
Good luck my dude
