Default water got in my motor-_-...whats an ok engine swap?

hey guys i have a 95 eg 4door with a d15b7 and it had a cooling problem so it just overheated and water is all in my oil now...what is a good replacement motor that wouldnt require me to do any major replacements like cpu or trans? i really dont have the money to do alot right now and this is my only form of transportation so i would like to do the least i possibly can. i know it sounds cheap but i have plans for this car thats y i havent sold it . any reponse good or bad will be fine.

Swap in the same engine.
Did the engine seize up or something? Just replace the head gasket if not.

Dual Carbed JDM D15B, reuse your intake and exhaust manifolds as well as the distributor. You'll also need to remove the mechanical fuel pump bolted to the back of the head and replace it with a cover.
