Welcome to the forum hangtown,
Sorry to hear about the XJ40 engine. I expect finding a good replacement unit in CA would be difficult and sourcing a new crank for a rebuild be very costly.
Follow this link XJ ( X308 ) XJ8 / XJR - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X308 section for help, advice and information.
Remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.
You can also visit the US Western Region section by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/western-us-ak-ca-nv-ut-hi-wa-id-38/ to find other members on the West Coast.
Enjoy the forum.
