First Mini...maybe the last.  

I don't want to swap for the automatic, I just need an engine.

Thanks!
Hi SadMini,  the MINI catalog lists the engine part number and does not differentiate between manual vs automatic transmission.  So, you should be able to swap the 2009 N12 engine for the dead engine in your 2010 with the same N12 engine. 

If the flywheel / clutch from your 2010 is in good shape, you should be able to bolt it right up.  If your clutch is marginal, this is a great time for a clutch job!
