The engines had to be seized, but I don't think the parts yards are allowed to sell any part of the driveline at all. They can also only part the cars for 180 days. Moot point, since most yards have their own limits which are either at or close to 180 days anyway. (Shelf life).

EDIT: At the beginning, the drivetrain was off limits. The provisions had changed this month or early last month, making it so that they could be sold, but not as a unit.
The same person could buy the transmission and axles, but they could not be sold together, they had to have been disassembled prior to sale.
Also, the dealers do not have to seize the engines until they are paid the C4C credit back. Once that has occured, they have to seize/report the seizure, then salvage yards have to report the entry of the vehicle, record that the engine was seized, and catalog it, at which point, they have 180 days to salvage/part it out.
