It's a category called "Owner-Maintenance," designed to keep
those older airplanes flying even though parts are hard to find. The
airplane essentially becomes a homebuilt. There are drawbacks: no
flights into the U.S., for instance.
I don't think he should bother with any engine offsets to start
with. The Cessan 172 uses none, like many others. Bigger concern would
be the strength of the structure. The 120 was a pretty light airplane.

I would think replacing an engine with a totally different one, and not
certified for anything, would go "a bit" beyound owner maintenance. Or is
nothing too far for this category?
