The last thing they were working on was a flange in between the motor and trans. Supposedly, it took them 2 days to get a rusted/frozen bolt out.

Full disclosure: I'm a reformed smoker and can now smell smoke a mile away.
As for the other issues: you most definitely have a fight on your hands. Good luck w/that.

A transferable warranty, in writing, on the motor to include any diagnosis time if you encounter future problems. Also, get a full accounting of what was damaged and what will be replaced. Make sure anything with a serial number that is replaced is documented as this could be important at resale. (serial #'s don't match = bad)
As Just Me said below, get your timing belt, tensioners, accessory belt, water pump and cam seals done at the same time.
