...prefer non runner so long as all the internals are there. Don't need inlet/exhaust manifolds or carbs, other ancilliaries etc. Basic engine please

Very very very cheap is best

Cheers

It might help if you said your location as well as whether you are bothered if it is a low compression unit and whether from a Land Rover, Range Rover, Rover P6, Rover SD1 etc. I expect something from a later Range Rover might be the cheapest and most readily available, but depending on what you what to do you might want something earlier on carbs and no electronics as well what timing cover for fitment purposes.

Some useful info on engine differences:
