I hate to break your bubble.. but with all the japanese engines running around.. nobody wants the plain old chevy 350 anymore.
Just kidding, you should know that.
ANYBODY dealing with domestic cars should be able to get your the parts you need. From speed shops to the local chevy dealer. Even Pepboys, autozone, and like can help you.
Hell, you can probably pick up a rebuilt engine for less than a grand, pull out your old engine for the core, and drop it and drive away in a couple of days.

The block is toast. Summit or jegs is probably your cheapest bet crate motor just depends on if you want a short block or long block. You can take your chances with a junk yard motor but would be safer to buy a crate motor in this situation. or you can try ebay. But again thats a used motor usually.
