Westerbeke 42

Hello fellow boating enthusiasts, I am considering buying a Leopard 38 with about 4500 hours on the Westerbeke 42 engines and wondered if anyone has an idea of what the cost would be to rebuild them ie. rings and bearings or would it be more cost effective to purchase new engines. The engines currently run just fine I was curious of the cost. Also, the 42's seem like overkill on a cat that size and could I possibly get away with smaller engines. Thanks in advance for your input, Jim
