post this in the technical section mate, you'll get better responses. Problem you'll have with making an engine out of a cocktail of parts is that theyre both messed up and once you factor a head gasket set, oil, filter, cambelt kit etc into it you might as well just buy a decent running lump.
Others may have a different opinion, all I can say is that I hope you got that 95 wrx cheap, like £500 cheap.

The vin plate will have the correct engine designation on it, i.e. EJ205, EJ207 etc. Not sure how you would check when the engine aint in the car tho......
Removal is much the same as any other engine, undo the mounts, gearbox (remember the clutch fork) and it should come out.....(obviously unplug everthing).
