Default engine question

my mate has a wrx import, now he has an engine noise which sounds like piston slap. He has been offered a uk turbo engine, will this fit if he puts the wrx ancillaries on the uk block and heads?

Be careful buying engines.
I blew up a MY96. Bought what I was told was a UK MY96. Got Westaways Subaru to fit it, had to spend loads more on auxillery parts that didn't match up.
