Try Ebay and other sites for the M110 engine manual. For the chassis obtain a 107 chassis manual.
The fuel System will be Bosch K-Jet. The EPC lists the 280SL so you can look up parts there. http://epc.startekinfo.com/epc/welcome.jsp It requires a credit card to verify US residency. No charge will be made. You can't beat free.
