I really don't see what the difficulty is.... you make the actual "engine" (cylinder sleeves, head, valvetrain, crank, and a little webbing to hold them together) out of metal as usual and then wrap the whole thing in a cast plastic jacket with lubricant/coolant channels. Sounds pretty simple to me.
