location sir?

Please I have I seriously need answers and solutions
Please this just my second car and my first time experiencing such
My Toyota Camry 2007 4plug after using it to pass through water that got to the tire level when I got to my house gate it' start making some funny noise
The next day I found out the oil warn light is on I check the engine and the oil have short so I top the oil and it went off and the car was driving well but the noise still continues
So I went to mechanic he says I should buy new oil and filter that there is something at the bottom plate he will remove and it will stop so I make enquiries from other same car users they say it doesn't mean anything that he should remove it then after removing it and changing oil he start it and the sound was still there he said it will stop and I try driving it home only for the noise to increase the more and start making knocking sound

I call someone to check he said it's crankshaft, and about 3 people comfirmed it's crankshaft
Now my fear and problem is this

They are charging 130-150k to fix the crankshaft, oil pump etc

But rumours is saying I should not do it that it won't last but I don't know because it's my personal car for work
Should I fix it or save money and buy tokumbo half engine since alternator, compressor,etc is still very good

Or fix the engine
Please your advice and solutions
And reasons

If I fix it will it last? Etc
Please

The attached video is the oil pump the dirt he serviced and the thing on the bottom plate he removed

You bought a car, paid no attention to the engine oil levels as they dropped, car ran out of oil (had noting to do with flood) the crankshaft was scared, now the engine is about to throw a rod.

Recommendation .

Buy a used engine .

Rebuild engine (Crankshaft, rings , bearings etc)

Choice is yours .

Please I don’t know if anyone have bought Mobil 1 5W30 advance full synthetic on Jumia before. I don’t know if it save to buy on jumia. Price for Mobil 1 5W30 advanced full synthetic on jumia is 20,000, why at Mobil filling stations they told me 40,500. I’m afraid I don’t want to ruin my car engine.
