Sorry to ruin the holidays for you but this is an engine out and strip down lower part to replace. You will probably find the crankshaft is worn out too. I would look around for a good used engine (usually less than $500.00) and install that.
If you wanted to you could replace the bearings, rod nuts, timing belt, water pump etc.. on the used engine.
This is not an uncommon problem with older 944s.
