Decision time.

My p38 has developed a nice tapping noise and starting to use water.

Diagnosis. Slipping liner

Everything thing else is good.
6 months not, new compressor & air bags, new windscreens & 2 tyres.

Do I get a replacement engine or do I sell/ break it?

You haven't got enough posts to advertise on this site and I suggest you remove your telephone number and email address. To get back to your original question that decision can only be made by you.

+1. It is scary how cheap a second hand engine is off the bay. Mainly because people break them all the time.
