Good running used ones selling for $2000-$5000 from what I see online.
Probably not going to be a quick sell if your trying to get top dollar for it, at auction it might bring $1000 depending on the crowd, I would probably take a chance on it at that price but would expect to sit on it for a year or two until I found the right buyer.
Guessing the cost for a proper rebuild would be in the $10 000+ range so if it is in fact is a rebuilt engine it definitely has some value.
Any documentation to support what was done to it would be a big plus.
Maybe an old friend or neighbor of his may be able to provide some more information about it.
Another option may be to have an engine builder go through it and reseal it, going to cost some money but it would be a lot more appealing to a buyer than someone saying I think it was rebuilt.
