Me jumping on a 5 foot breaker bar on says, if the block comes with it, the block was no good to begin with.
I transfered mine from a 2.4 to the 3.0 with both engines out, it just takes time and a willingness to not listen to that "something's going to break..." feeling for once. If you have the engine in the car, as you do, it should go easier. Check for the heater first, depending on the year/version, they can look quite like a freeze plug at first glance, and can be overlooked easily.
