based on what is attached to the flywheel... somebody tried hard to rotate that shaft...
How big/expensive of a job am I looking at?

The way it was stripped down looks like it was to be made lighter for removal. All these old parts must be in a box someplace in the yard if they did not toss it. Alot of folks like a big challenge- don't think a viable financial victory is in sight. My advise is spend the $1500 and get a used good running engine with decent compression etc. [I'd save the auto "halon extinguisher", they are outlawed but work well.]
FYI, Halon extinguishers were not outlawed. The manufacture of that specific CFC was stopped in 1994, but existing supplies are still used, recycled and reused. There is absolutely nothing illegal about a Halon system, and there is no reason to remove them from service. I have two Halon units on my boat.

Yes, several CFCs were discontinued by law in '94 due to their "high ozone depletion" chemical makeup. R-11, R-12, R-113, Halon, etc.
There is an HCFC replacement for Halon, called Halotron, IIRC you can get your Halon bottle refilled with it if it's ever discharged, might require valve replacement.
