So, if that's the case, what am I looking at? New bearings? New Rods? New Crank? New Engine? New Identity?
A new identity is cost prohibitive unless someone steals your current one and you have full coverage.
You won't know about the rest until you get it apart. If it is just bearings and bushings with no damage to the crank, rods or case it is a lot less expensive. If the person in the saddle tried to keep going even though the bike was making horrible noises (more throttle!) the crank will be damaged. The path those chunks took on their way to the oil pan is a life or death question for the cylinders and pistons. It also depends on your ability and willingness to do the labor.
If you pull the cylinders and connecting rods, you will be able to answer all the questions.
If you have a clear title, using the original case is a good idea since it has numbers are matched to the frame and usually tied to the title.
Good luck to you. Thanks for the pictures and story. I hope it has a happy ending.
