Well I found Bigfoot and the missing link but internal engine parts for a 2005, W215, M275, 6.0 L, V12, AMG, not so easy. Crank and rod bearings, to start I guess one could call a dealer but who knows what price they will pull out of their hat. Just looking for a vendor who's fair and knowledgeable.
Google for "Mercedes 2750300260" (rod bearing) and you'll find some sellers, like eBay and fcpeuro.
I have found the rod bearings but no main so far. I really haven't put much effort looking but I sure miss my car
Looking into someone who can sleeve the engine and find someone who makes pistons and rings. Besides those knuckleheads at ***********.
So I am working with a machinist and a sleeve manufacturer to
replace all 12 cylinder sleeve's. I hope to use the pistons in the engine
as they superficially look good. I will have to closely inspect them to
know for sure. The sleeves won't be aluminum & silicone like the
factory ones, I need to talk to "smart" folks about this. Heat transfer
is one question ? I did find where to get bearings, chains and
the rest. Rings are another issue, looking to have them made.
The crank, pistons, rods and cam's new are very expensive !!

In case this is helpful, I see that you are using plastic on windows as they are not indexing. If you want to better protect this, just re-connect the battery, insert key and turn to position 1 and press and hold the window buttons at fullest depressed up with doors shut and they will re-index. remove the key, shut the door, and go to open trunk and remove the battery. Then manually close trunk lid, Next time you need to get in car, open trunk with valet key, connect battery and repeat process. Lock doors by pressing door lock button on dash when key in position 1 with driver door open, this locks passenger door. After battery cable removed, lock drivers door with valet key.
Hope this helps-would hate to see water/moisture get in there.
