You need to bring pics of numbers etc in to a good engine re-manafacturers.

they will advise on best options and will know if engine is commonly used in Uk. 

It may well be model used in some generators or compressors.

also google search ‘engine for Vermeer bc625’ , and check out USA forums like tree buzz

Yes, the hole in the block isn't a big thing, as it can be stitched, but what got thrown out will be something major.

May be worth checking boat yards, the 100 series were often used in lobster boats, small fishing boats etc.

I wouldn't be surprised if this engine is no longer available and that you'll struggle to get one. Probably better to weigh it in and put your money in to something more obtainable and convert it to petrol vee twin?
