At this stage your odds of getting that motor back running correctly and reliably for under $1000 and 100 hours are pretty slim, and likely diminishing daily.

What you have on your hands is a "fun" hobby project for sometime who rebuilds marine motors regularly. IMO (having done a few strange projects automotive and marine in my time) I think you have a losing battle on your hands if the motor has been disassembled and pieces scattered by a person other than yourself.
