I would be uncomfortable selling as a private sale with any of the options other than the new engine. Also if I spent 7k on a secondhand head and it packed up 1 week later before I got it moved on then I would have no comeback, be 7k down and back to square one.
And as someone else said there is nothing for sale at the moment. Even if I ordered the Polestar tomorrow it would be October before I get it.....

With a new engine, if anything goes wrong Volvo will replace it. With a new head they may claim that it is part of the old engine parts failed…
It’s unfortunate but I totally agree with what you are doing
