G-day mate.
Umm. Good luck finding a cheap 4.2 in good nick.
Your best bet would be a rebuild.
You can buy kits as the 4.2 are a sleeved block.
With a bit of common sense, mechanical knowledge and a mate you can easily do most the work yourself.
You'll just need the block head machined flat again as the selves will sit proud a little. And a slight hone won't hurt either.

But it should be about $2000 for a rebuild. Very cheap really..

Plenty of info here and if you get up to the 25 posts grab the manuals as they are a wealth of knowledge to assist you with repairs..

Top start..
Kits are here
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NISSAN-PATROL-GU-TD42-NON-TURBO-ENGINE-REBUILD-KIT-/110694590315

A little more expensive than I last saw. But still $2500 should well and truly see the rebuild complete.

Hard to kill a 4.2
