Sorry for your troubles. Best thing is to do some calling around and see who can get you the best price on a GM crate motor. No matter where you buy it the warranty will be the same. The GM and Ford engines are what they call throw away engines. Go to the dealer and they will tell you the same thing.
I would not buy a junk yard engine you will probably end up with the same problem.
That's funny because I'm under the impression that the 6.7 Cummins has forced more owners to throw away their EGR coolers/valves, turbos and DPF's. Then install a tuner to compensate for the lack of these items, and then paying the piper with a new head gasket job! :S
Sorry FACT is the 6.7 Cummins is very trouble free. The ones with a problem are the ones that added tuners!
