It sure does look scary, but...do not make conclusions yet. I would remove everything including the heads and see what exactly happened. Only if there is damage to the block itself, I would make plans to remove it.

Pull the heads off for sure and see why the pushrod poked out. If the block is ok, just fix it. You wont be out anything, and you could save yourself some $$$
