Default Options for main caps on a B18C1

I can't find my #1 main cap and the machine shop needs all 5 for sleeving. I could either buy a new bare block with mains, or machine a new #1 main cap to use. Which would you guys think would be less cost efficiant? Are there any other options for me? Thanx

Get one off of a used blown motor and have your block alignhoned.

That was what I wanted to do, but are you guys sure the machining alone won't be more than just buying a bare block with mains? If align honing it will be less, then I'll definetly just do that. Thanx fellas.
