You could swap a used engine into it but it not worth it in my opinion.

It don't leak aleast underneath or appear to be leaking on the top of the engine.It runs really strong, don't smoke. I live in Colo and have taken it up mountain passes to 12,000 feet don't miss runs like a swiss watch, just burns oil as I said before
I don't know what oil you use in the engine but you can try changing to a heavier oil. At this point you have nothing to lose.
