What you see is what you get:

On the left is an SE-R engine with a blown headgasket.
In the middle is a low-mile S14 SR20DE bottom end that, unfortunately, sat in a plastic bag in the rain for 6 months. Moist air in the bag caused surface rust on the cylinder walls and white corrosion on the outside of the block. This is still very salvagable. Tear down, hone cylinders, replace rings, reassemble.
On the right is an S14 SR20DET that was severely overheated. As you can see, some parts (like cams, valve cover) are missing.
My recommendation: strip all the bolts/hardware from the left engine and shitcan it. Freshen up the bottom end from the middle engine, get the head from the right engine straightened (I assume its warped), and scour the interwebs for the few missing parts to build yourself a nice, new SR.
NO, I ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT PART THIS PILE OUT. if you just want the water pump, for example, you have to take all 3 engines. I'm moving and I'm not taking this heavy crap with me.
The engines are in Long Beach, CA. Come and get em. $200 for the whole pile.
