What i believe u need is engine rebuild kit; comes with seals, gaskets, connecting rod bearings and main bearings, rings valve seals and a few other parts.
But in the first place what is your reason for doing all this work? Depending on the problem you may not need to do all of that.. What exactly is the problem with the engine?

QuickPc's is right... that engine would need alot of work... best to get the dohc... but if you looking for the engine rebuild kit check diamond motors
Since this engine is old and obviously high mileage just installing bearings and gaskets on a worn surface would be a problem itself.. This means for proper sealing, and good oil pressure, resurfacing of a variety of parts may be necessary depending on the wear of the engine (head and block, cylinder walls, crankshaft etc.). Since you say it is smoking i would assume this engine is pretty worn.. so IMO get a foreign used dohc
