I understand your  desire to let a “professional” look at it.  But please know that not all “professionals” are very professional.  Get an estimate first, unless the shop says the engine needs very little to get back into service.

Go ahead and get that service manual, and let us know if the shop wants big bucks to get the engine going again, post the estimate here.
