They are probably standard so Wadhams and the like shouyld supply.
However by the looks of what else you are saying about this engine, I would not bother and either have reconditioned or look for a better one as they new bearing will not last long and the bores/camshaft are most likley very worn

The best way is to take it to an engine reconditioner and let them measure the journals. They will be able to supply new shells to fit or advise a regrind.
