I took apart 30 M151A2s back in 87. I would sell off complete running powerpacks for $125. Otherwise, I would sell the alternator and the distributor components and make just as much. I still see the odd powerpack show up from somebodies shed for $500.

Re alternate fuel sources, propane is very hard on valves and seats....some engines more than others. I got to experience a lot of that first hand when the military tried to run propane vehicles back in the 80s. It was definitely not the right fuel for this climate, and not the right fuel for multiple users.
