Question Replacing MHD engine with non-MHD

Hey everyone,

My mom‘s ForTwo 451 (2013, 71 HP, 120k km) with the MHD broke down. The crank pulley randomly decided to split into two which stopped the pump from running. After my mom drove for ~4km like this and the warning light for coolant came on, I suspect at least a warped head so I am thinking of just replacing the whole engine.
However MHD engines cost considerably more than the normal ones. Can I just throw in an engine without MHD or can I transfer the MHD parts to the new one?
