Only engines that are not rebuild able if the engine has a hole in the side from a rod letting go.

A bent rod or broken rod is rebuild able, although the dealer that you are dealing with may not rebuild them since it's a lot of work that is probably beyond what the warranty will cover. Better to locate a good engine and just swap them out. A X that has been totaled from the rear is a good candidate for a spare engine.
