That don't sound good if its seized. Hope you did to pay anything for it or if you did pay i hope it was very little.
You maybe lucky to un seize it but it may end up damaging the bores and piston rings so will end up smoking. Really it will need a refurb. Freshen up.
Tip some diesel down each bore. And leave it to soak in for a few days. Also I heard coke cola does the trick as well.
Lets see some photos.

Not too bad price.
It's a case of let it soak. It's not something that works straight away. Just let it do its work.
Lets see some photos.

Could have a half decent head on it if it has been reworked in the past so that could be worth saving even in the engine is seized

Hard to tell from the pictures but the yellow paint and ribs on the block make me think it is a 998 A+ engine
Binning the mechanical fuel pump is a common mod for an electric pump to deliver a higher presssure for bigger carbs / turbos / supercharges etc. I have done this mod on my pickup
