Parting out is a pain in the butt... then having to box and ship parts. It depends on how valuable your time is to you. Sometimes it's better just to let go and sell the car as is and move on.
On a somewhat related note, after seeing your pics of the sealant that clogged the oil pick up tube, I dropped the oilpan of my wife's '99 9-3 that I had just put on and had reassembled the subframe; disassembling it all to drop the pan, wipe off the anaerobic sealant that had squeezed into the interior oilpan area, and reapplied the sealant very sparingly on the outside most edge to prevent it gumming up the pick up tube. It took a couple of extra hours, but given the grief it caused you, I figure it was time well spent. So thanks for posting - it may have saved her engine suffering the same fate. Good luck with your decision.
