Basically, what culberro is suggesting.
Get the 93 engine and the rods/pistons from JohnMc. The squirter blocks don't wear out the parts anywhere near as fast as the earlier design did. I'd bet those pistons are in nice shape. That will fit your Turbobricks budget and should actually last awhile.
But he said that he prefers not having to drill the block for the oil return... It's not that hard really.... All you need is a good 1/2 drive drill and a good set of drill bits. The boss on the block is already there for the oil return and you just start with a 1/4 bit a work your way through to a 29/32 for a 3/4 pipe tap. I just bought a 3/4 NPT to -10AN fitting for $3 at my local hydraulic hose shop.
