Default My xB threw a Rod!

My 2005 Scion xB with less than 67000 miles on it just threw a rod through the engine block.

According to KBB.com my Scion is worth $4291-4746.

Do you think I should replace the engine or total it out?

The garage that has my car now estimates the price of used engine replacement for $3588.76 with 65000 miles on it.

Should I look for a lower mileage engine?

If I should replace the engine do you have any garages near Ontario, CA that you can recommend with an engine replacement?

Thanks for any suggestions!
