KWP metal impellor pump seems decent and well enough thought of. I got mine from ECP.
Dunno about the stat housing, I never found one.

I put Matt (Meatballs82)at ECP on the case of sourcing alloy stat. housings a couple of months ago, but I don't think he had any luck yet.
They were standard fitment to early M50s, but only the plastic version is supplied as a replacement by BMW, although they still sell the gasket.
