Re your own engine, likely on borrowed time, no one can say how long it'll last, maybe a few thousand miles, maybe a 100 thousand miles. The latter not being so likely. Most of the lead/copper bearings pulled are in a very poor state, as in showing copper to varying degrees (see the rod bearing condition thread) . My car had done about 75k miles, a lot of the bearings were showing quite a lot of copper, and 2 had purple heat streaks!
