KM55R need new engine - where to source

I'll leave out the backstory but I need to replace the engine on a Stihl KM55R.

- Does anyone know where I can source one?
- Does anyone have the part number/make/model of the engine?
- Does anyone know what other Stihl models use the same engine? --- Hoping to pick up a used Stihl with a working engine and swap them.

Thanks in advance! Appreciate any assistance you can give.

Cheers/Mike
 
You also can use the power head from a FS45 or FS55. Just need to change out the full length shaft to the short upper shaft split shaft. Both are the same 4140 38mm engines 27.2 cc as the KM55R (R stands for spark arrestor)
