Use the TDI PS pump and stock vanagon lines.

Use the stock TDI alternator, only mod might be a clutched pulley which makes a significant difference in smoothness.

Don't use the stock '83 diesel oil pump pickup tube. It has the integral oil control valve which is sized for a 30mm gear oil pump. The AHU will have the 36mm gears and so is not a good match. Get a complete euro TD oil pump. They are still available new, part # 068 115 105 BP. They are the 36mm pump with correct oil pressure control valve for the DV configuration. If you have A/C there is not any oil filler tube that will fit. If you have A/C and want a license plate filler it will be a custom job. I made one fairly easily from a WBX filler. If you do not have A/C but have power steering you can get a used later model 1.6TD oil filler tube that winds around the pump and it will fit.

You didn't comment on air filter, intake tubing, intercooler, glow plugs.

That will save you a few dollars. They have the Meyle version of that pump for even less.

Your air filter and intercooler system is going to be custom. You'll want to research to see what you want to do in that regard.
