Good resource to search for 356 and 912 engine numbers, might help you answer your first question

As phone call I would keep that engine you have, look to get a VW unit in the car to keep it going. Then you can look in to and investigate the engine you have. To look to rebuild the motor to what you want.
buying that 356 engine for a £1000 and give him your old one is not a good move I feel but its up to you.

the engine case number dates it to around August 66
As Mark says, you'd probably be better keeping the engine you have and putting the cash towards having it rebuilt (not that it's likely to be rebuilt properly for anything as little as a grand!)
