Just trying to look at it from the other side of the fence...

Carbs are good they are or were not the problem.

an engine with 4 hours run time can speak volumes about what its going to do with its life ..

Yes I am worried about the other engine too. I know I don't have the cash to fix 2 and not even sure how I am fixing this one.

Sounds like his definition of rebuild is new bearings.

No receipts supplied for parts or shop costs = no rebuild.

What is his explanation for rust on the cam lobes? Crossed oil lines don't do that, neither does gas washed oil. This thing looks like it was assembled at the bottom of the ocean.
