it's prety straight forwart to service the engine matey, just do the obvious, spark plug's, air filter, oil filter, and some fresh oil in the old girl and she'll be happy enough, check the dizzy cap and the rotor arm while your at it just incase they need a changing,
and you could try here for you service parts

Pretty much as craigeeb said, apart from i'd use a genuine oil filter, the rest i'd be happy to go to a motor factors for.
You might want to think about changing the coolant especially if you have no record of when it was changed, and even more as its a 2.5. The coolant should be changed every 2 years otherwise you are endangering the cylinder head. Its quite a pain in the arse to do right, but a quick search on here shoes you the best way.
