It looks like to me he broke the bolt going into the engine block. I am guessing the long one on the bottom? If that is the case, it may be a little difficult to priority mail the engine block to you.

Unless I am reading it wrong...

Sorry,
I'm not the best with reading comprehension....my bad. Well, in that case sorry but you can't ship the engine. Duh! I would help if I was closer. Still have your local class a welder tig weld a washer or bolt to the ezout first, get it out of the way if possible, then try the bolt itself. You can use a heat shrink heater gun to heat the area around the stud to help free it up. Maybe penetrating oil? good luck! sorry I can't read.
