just wanna bump this up and see if anybody can help me. Thanks!

Hi guys. I've done some reading here and this is a great forum. My 98 Avalon threw a rod and I'm looking for a 1mz-fe from japan. I have absolutely no mechanical skills or knowledge at all. I've got a guy that will put the engine in for me, but I've got to find it myself. Now I've done the google searches and ebay searches and there are enough of these motors around, but I'm worried that I'll buy one that will end up not being right. Are there different versions of this motor, or if I buy one out of a camry will it drop right into my avalon exactly? How can I make sure that I get one that will drop right in? Thanks so much for any help you can give me.
