I've recently aquired an '88 560 SEC and have since found what appears to be a terminal problem with it.  There is quite a large amount of oil fumes coming from the breather pipe on the cam cover into the air filter box, and having read an earlier post by Backwater 190 and Andy, it would seem that a "....piston ring is worn out....." requiring "...an engine rebuild or replacement."

Good news is I have a good engine in my rather rusty '84 500 sec and was wondering if this would fit into the 560 without having to change all of the electronics/engine management stuff. If so, does anyone know roughly how much this would cost?
