I got to DB this afternoon and they showed me some carnage.
One of the covers that goes over the top of the cams (holds the bearing in place) snapped when they turned the car over. Mitsu also doesn't sell that part separately--you have to buy a whole head.
Now we need to look into buying a salvaged head and machining it or finding a new one through Mitsu at a reasonable price (not likely).
I'll be calling my Credit Union to see if I can do a cash-out refinance since I put a fair bit down on the car when I bought it. A built head is in the ballpark of $5k. The plus side is more power and I could get as crazy with the rpms as I dared...
The engine bay looks fucking amazing! I'll post some pics when I get home from work.
