As below, short block is the minimum parts necessary for a crank and bore recondition. Crank + bearings, cam + timing gear, pistons, rods. All fitted ready to rebuild with the rest of your old parts.
Long block is the more complete reconditioned unit. Will include ancillaries such as oil pump, sump. filter housings, probably head + valve gear and flywheel. Rebuilt ready to fit.
So, a long block has had more reconditioning and is consequently more expensive, but requires less work to refit. But in both cases the block will be the same.
Usually you have to pay a deposit, on purchase, to ensure the return of the out of spec (used) items, for a return of your deposit - as long as they are reconditionable, and identical to the reconditioned items.
