I think there is one in a HZ at ClassicOzWreck.Give Greg a call.
Make sure whatever you buy you get what you need. There is 2x different spec inlet manifolds in HZ (early and late). There is also auto and manual engines (manual have no EGR). Some will have viscous fans too (factory air I think).
Late LX Torana engines will also have all you want. If you have a late HZ a VB Commodore engine will too.
Just remembered there is a water pump spec change in there somewhere as well.

Look in the ad banner up top.
As for a 6/78 thats close to the introduction of VB Commodore which I think is where the engine spec changed so I cant tell you for sure. You might want to look at a few original HZs from the same plant as yours for the same month. Someone else here might have a better idea. Ill ask for you over in the Holden general discussion area.
