You can get those at your local Honda Dealership, although they will probably have to order. Or take that part number to the parts stores and see if they can match it up.

Re: crank layed down or up?

If the oil pan is on, then it would not sit horizontal. Either on an engine stand or just laying flat. I have never seen or heard of anyone laying a block on any of its sides.
