There is also a guy on this forum that runs a BMW parts biz up north a ways. Or, Matt down at Bavarian Motorhaus(?) in Elko. I'm thinking a used head or worse case used 4.4 motor would be an option.
Hugely tragic occurrence, but I'm thinking the costs to repair could be mitigated if you can source used parts locally.

Thanks for the ref's Dan!
My friend just had his 2002 over to DJ's after he heard great things. They did tons of work and fixed 4 separate issues for under 4 bills. I was amazed. Darwin is the guy to see there. He told me there was a Alpina B7 on the lift when he picked up his ride that was nice to hear.
Pams up in St. Cloud has a 06 4.4 W/ 102K for 3700.00
My friend knows the Euro guy who pulls BMW parts up there and says his work is clean and he would trust a block from him.
I've never heard of that place in Elko. I'll check it out.
I'll def. lock in your number and pick your brain in the very near future. Thanks for the help man.
