A 1982 500SEL would be a Euro only car. As for the AMG mods, you'll probably never know until you break down the engine, and even then you might not ever know. I would go under the assumption that there is no way in hell it's an AMG engine.

If it isn't an AMG engine, gaskets for a 1984 or 85 500SEL will fit. If it actually WAS produced in 82, you have a Euro-import grey-market car. Verify the year by checking the mfg date on the door pillar.

Enter your VIN and see when manufactured, where shipped and which options it came with. Not positive it will work with one so old but worth a try.
