2006 w/ siezed engine...

I have a 2006, which I've owned since it was new (currently 160K miles). On a recent trip, I detected a new noise at idle. Once I completed the trip I took it to my dealer/mechanic to determine the source. They isolated it to the #3 cylinder injector and replaced the injector. This lessened the extra knock by a bit, but w/in ten miles (ten miles short of home) the motor came to a stand still...Once it cooled, it will start and idle (barely), but not enough power to move + horrible noises. I'm willing to bet #3 piston/rings/wrist are toast, but I haven't pulled it yet. Looks like an engine swap in order :( Can anyone recommend a good place to start looking for a low milage used or re-man w/ warranty? Which would you recommend? What should I pay?
