buy a set of jack stands. they should only cost like 30 bucks at most for a good enough set. just jack up the car and put it on stands and it will be a lot safer then just the jack and probably safer then the ramps too

When you spin a bearing as long as it's not run long you can likely salvage the engine. It will require at LEAST a lower end rebuild if not a little more. But first need to figure out the cause of the sound.

Okay please pardon my stupidity but rebuilding the bottom would consist of a new crank, rods, and pistons?

sometimes you can get away with having the crank turned and bearings, sometimes just throw a bearing in it & go, more often than not it trashes the crank and rod
