I am not sure about Rear Bumper fasteners, but I'd guess they are out there. Everything else is easily available. RockAuto or your local parts houses should be able to handle this. drain plug should be easy too if the pan is not damaged.

Is he trying to restore the car to concours standards? If he is just looking to do a tune up aftermarket stuff will cost a lot less and work a lot better than 20+ year old NOS filters and wires. Everything you are looking for is available through RockAuto.
If you need a dizzy I have a Pontiac big cap HEI distributer at home.

If it was up to me, id have no issue ordering the RockAuto stuff. But he seems to be real set on using ONLY oem stuff.
I have a feeling ill be talking him into the RockAuto stuff by the end of the day...

Rear Diff Pinion seal - Napa. Not a GM part in the first place. Any GM 10 bolt.
Wires and Distributor - Ames for wires. Why distributor? I recurve them and replace internals if needed. No need to get new, well new GM is really not an option. GM makes modules still D1206.
Rear Bumper fasteners - Auveco or likewise supplier
Front swaybar bushings and links - MOOG. You'll never know the difference.
Oil Filter + drain plug - ACDELCO anywhere that sells ACDelco. Why drain plug? If stripped then you better check that the pan threads are good.
Fuel Filter - its in the carb. Should be long type for 79 Qjet. Dosent matter who's box. All the same.
I stock the filters and normally have modules as well.
