Sounds like something let go for sure. A rod cap might have not been torqued or something and backed off. A whole host of things could have gone wrong. With it not cranking, my bet is that a rod is caught between the crank and block. See if it want to turn counterclockwise at all. Chances are that at this point, it is going to be scrap or a complete professional rebuild.

Just about any 302 would work. A newer 5.0 engine has it's own set of issues. I'd stick with an older 28oz imbalance 302 out of a Bronco or pickup.
