The support off of the rear of the gearbox and the brackets around the rear silencer box will probably be well past their best, but the rubber hangers usually last well.
You'll need new copper coated nuts for the join to the manifold, and four ordinary 50mm M8 nuts and bolts to join the two halves together.
