When you say cover everything in oil, you mean after soaking the whole motor in degreaser or what?

I am going to ask you a direct question.Sorry guy.When you say "it cleaned up and painted you might get more for it",that I hope doesn't mean that you would be trying to represent it as something it isn't??.Pretty sure if that is the case and you turned the tables where you where buying a short block,you wouldn't like it.Smart buyers bring mics with them and know how to use them.

The other question is did you remove the valve lifters??.Did you keep them in the same order they came out of the block??.If not,throw them out.Flat tappet lifters need to be put back in the block the same way they came out.
