engine blew up (yikes) (long) HELP

I was doing 70 on the highway in my 95 900s (2.0l)listening to music when I heard a clicking tapping noise coming from the engine... all hell broke loose from there. In the next few seconds as I tried to shift to neutral it shifted out for me... then BANG the engine dies... I coasted to the side of the road and smoke was bellowing out of the front of the car... after putting out a small fire from the dripping oil on the exhaust, I noticed a hole in the front of the casing. (down on the left side of the engine where the knock sensor was screwed in.)
What is this kind of thing going to run me? Any suggestions on engines or options? My life as a poor college student depends on it!
