I think you need to PM SuperModerators directly.
This forum has no moderators, that could do simple tasks.
Mackhack made great offer, but also we do have several MB dealers selling the parts on net using MB EPC, like http://www.mbdirectparts.com/
Not as direct like entering your VIN on EPC, but does the job most of the time.

i use http://www.everythingbenz.com/z/epc-...-info-diagrams for a list of parts and pictures - is that what you are looking for?

there are a large number of DIY pages on the http://www.pelicanparts.com/

for my e500 sedan 211.070, this site links to http://www.everythingbenz.com/z/mtype/211070 which then goes on to http://mb-teilekatalog.info/ ...

it has taken me while to get use to reading the part numbers on mb-teilekatalog.info. Here are some lessons learned

1. it pays to know you VIN and decode it i used http://www.vindecoderz.com/EN/Mercedes-Benz
   1. this site will show you your manufacture date
   2. also your chassis number. it took me a while to figure out that vin=WDBUF70J74A585658 means chassis=A585658
   3. also the options on your car -eg
      
      1. my car has [427] - AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION 7-SPEED, useful when selecting the "correct engine support rear"
      2. [804] - year of modification - 2004 for me
      3. my favorite, it seems my car has [753u] - TEKTITE GRAY - METALLIC PAINT
2. when looking at part numbers where there are multiple answers for the same part -
   
   1. watch for "Replaced by" -
      eg in FRONT AXLE / STEERING KNUCKLE AND CONTROL ARM, part #10 has been replaced multiple times
   2. watch for "code information" - in part #100 code [804] is the for year my car was made - 2004
   3. watch for "to chassis:" and "from chassis:" to match your chassis - eg part # 115
      
   4. watch for "to date:" and "from date:" to match your manufacture date - eg part # 155
