Engine rebuild parts

Looking for recommendations on source for engine rebuild parts. I disassembled the engine in my 2009 Mini Cooper S chasing a problem with low oil pressure at idle. Didn't find what I was looking for as thought I would find bad main/rod bearings. Anyway looking to replace the following and could use input on vendors.
- Complete cylinder head with camshafts
- Oil cooler/filter housing
- turbo charger
- crank/rod bearings
- complete engine gasket set

Things that make it easy to spot fakers is their failure to communicate. No mention of model and year of purported car and a total failure to visit the 'marketplace' where the vendors carry parts.

Sorry, for forgot to mention 2009 Mini Cooper S. I'm new to the Mini world, just looking for insight vendors that others have had good luck with.

Then I recon my initial harsh reply was far out of line. An apology offered. Still, open "marketplace' and check out the vendors.
