Just buy an import engine mate it will work out the same I think.
I take it you must have one of the early 89 luxes. the 2.8 motor in them were prone to crank problems if you didn’t service them dead on 5000km it was look out

the 2.8 litre (3L) was in luxes from 89 through to 97. i would say a crankshaft would be relitively easy to get
indubitably
