The fuel pump from a 16v vauxhall and maybe the fuel lines?

I cant see anything else, Have you got a complete donor car? If so you can just take everything you need.

As far as I can see you need fuel in the tank > fuel pump > fuel lines, then it's into the injector rail. You'll need to run a fuel return line as well.

Found something on PNG but fueling isn't one of my best points.

It mentions something about the only Nova without a return is the 1L.

I'm still a little unsure as i've never seen the fuel system on a Nova but all i'd need is an injection tank, fuel pump and lines?

need to cut a chunk out, push it back then weld it in to box section it. or, smash it with a mash hammer till there is enough space which is the rough way.

to borrow oone of my mates pics

A donor car with a 16v pump would be ideal....
