Good luck

Leo, I hope you get an easy ride. My friend Gerry bought a Volvo 850 GL with a 2.5 litre engine, 5 cylinder I think, and it had hydraulic lock.
He stripped the head, removed the fluid, lubed it up, and away she started!.
You might be lucky and I hope you are. If you are not, it would seem to be a better plan to replace the engine than to strip the car, though I can appreciate you may need a set of wheels straight away, and not spend a month or more off road looking for parts.

Hope it works out my friend

Joe
