Diperk should be able to source all those parts (but won't be cheap).
I'm not sure that the original engines used liners though and again I don't think the cam bearings are replacable either.

It is rare for the engine to require overhaul before very high milaged are reached. the usual reason for engine issues is corrosion of the headgasket caused by infrequent anti-freeze changes.
