Mechanic should own up to this. Did mechanic give any guarantee/warranty on work done?

yes anything from R20k to R40k. hard to find though. except for the pump what else failed. Di you run it without oil pressure.

Ouch
Not a cool thing at all, can't you get someone to look at your motor.

Aoh and it jams up the balancer shafts not the oil pump but they run off the same chain somthe end result is the oil pump not running.

Ouch , had my GTi engine fail on me just after purchasing it from a Oct seller .... Previous owner didn't tell me a few things , so ya i know this feeling . Sorry bud . I know this isn't much of a a help , but A guy from CPT can ship the engine to you but at a cost ...almost R41k for a BWA .
Sorry, I do know of someone from Durban that can also do it but I see where u from ....sorry.
Good luck .
