Default Spare motor ?

Hey Im considering a spare motor. Found this on kijiji, from Saajan. He mentioned he would do both compression and leakdown, but still very weary of purchasing a motor without warranty from kijiji. What do you think?

Is there a VIN # still?
3k for a F20C with no transmission and mileage basically 'unknown' seems pretty steep no?

haha thanks guys. After speaking to him, he was extremely pushy and started lowering price all too quickly. Will stay away.

For some reason this kinda looks like the valve cover my stolen s2k had... Oil hand marks are pretty similar.. the scratches. There's only one way I would know is if the oil cap has stripped threads.
