2005 mini with big sunroof

Make: MINI
Model: Coupe
Price: $500
Mileage: 175000
Color: blue
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (Region): South

Automatic trans, A/c, good tires/wheels. Cranks and runs but throws oil out of 3 inch hole in engine block where something tried and I'm not sure if successful, to get out below oil pump/filter area. Car was a daily driver up to the time that it suddenly began making a lot of noise, ran rough and dripped a lot of oil. Drove it a couple miles home and parked it about a year ago. Put a new battery in this week and it cranks right up but is still noisy and drips oil. Got it up on jackstands, cleaned off the oil and found hole in engine block where counter weights are visible and the oil is slung out when the engine runs. Hoping someone might be interested in the car for parts or repair. Body is in good shape but paint shows it's age. Located in Monroe, Louisiana (Northeast La.).
