He's a real hoarder and had plenty of stuff in past but no recent knowledge of him.
All I'll say is, believe nothing unless you see it with your own eyes, don't listen to any promises and make sure you have the parts in your hand before you give him the money.

Hopefully sorted by now, but if not, a quick Google on some of those part numbers show they're for a second gen ta40 Celica. It's possible that they're interchangeable but if it's Toyota's parts system I wouldn't rely on it.
The US site I use for parts is rockauto.com, you can pre-pay the duty and have the parts within a few days. Don't need part numbers for it either. The only thing to bear in mind is that they're for LHD cars but that obvs doesn't matter for most parts.

Seems to be air filter parts for 2T or 2TB engine. The T has one carb, the TB has two so the air filters are different. All 1600 UK Celicas should be TB, twin carb, unless it's an import.
Other UK ars with the TB were the TA40 Celica, the TE71 Corolla liftback and the later Corolla SR, (the older equivalent to the AE86.)
The other engine parts like the water pump assembly would be interchangable from 2T, which would include RWD Carinas up to about '88 I think. Long stroke 3T 1800 is pretty much the same too.

I used to have some success buying rare parts for Mk1 Celicas from a guy in the Hurst Toyota parts place off Boucher road, but not sure if its even there anymore?

I have an air filter housing for a single carb if it's any use to him.

What are the parts (can't be arsed looking up part numbers) but I'm restoring a TA40 rally car, so we're always hunting for parts, if i come across anything on the list I can pass it on.

Might still be able to get the clutch slave cylinder from motor factors. Brands like Blueprint or old stock Moprod off ebay etc.

(Alloy clutch master cylinder off a carina II 88-92 will fit with easy modification.)
