SnowQuilt, Although I've not done this on a Necchi, I don't know why you couldn't perform a motorectomy.... Depending on your mechanical skills and comfort level,
the easiest would be to find another Supernova SM to use as a donor.
Have you considered joining the Necchi Yahoo group as Chris_Quilts and Irishrose had posted earlier to see if they had any suggestions?
Without knowing what the symptoms are with your motor, start with the simplest solution first: have you oiled your SM and lubricated the motor ?
Maybe others will have better suggestions for you but please keep us posted on how things work out.
