Seems kinda pricey to me. I've bought several healthy/complete engines over the years and never paid more than $700. Last two i sold for $1k each. BUT thats just me.
As for the swap i've had a couple T444E's, and the current engine on my stand started life as one. Buddy of mine swapped it into his SD. As stated the longblock is identical, just the **** that bolts to it is whats different. This engine still has the IH front cover, HPOP, injectors, UVCH's, and i also believe it still has the oil pan, i'd have to check it tomorrow. Also the exhaust manifolds and up-pipes are interchangeable, this engine had factory bellowed up-pipes. It has Ford engine mounts, oil cooler, accessory brackets, engine harness, and intake spyder.
The only way you'll run into an issue is if the new engine is pre-99, the same as an OBS engine.
