99 E39 Engine swap or rebuild

My brother in law, dropped a valve in his motor, also believes it skipped timing. Therefore engine is toast.

Looking at either rebuilding the engine (and modifying once he is in there) or buying another engine to swap in. Newer or modified with more power?

What are best options?

BTW He is a certified mechanic, so it is parts only, labour is free
