ive never done it with an EA81 but with an 82 we took the heads off and hooked a high torque battery
the engine was scrap anyway but it worked for a little while, lots of smoke from the lube. depending where and why its seized there are methods but a full strip down is deffinetly the best bet

Yes Pull it apart and recondition it!

reco is the best way how ever if you take out the spark plugs over fill it with oil including 100ml per cyl put it in gear and rock it ( i use a tractor and chain ) it never fails me BUT thats just a quick fix your best chance is to strip and reco it or just buy a working engine
