Default Limbach or Stamo engine parts

I'm curious if anyone has had experience getting parts for these
engines in the US? How difficult, how much time did it take and how
expensive? I'm specifically looking at their use in motorgliders (which
I'm actively looking for a Scheibe or Fournier, Vivat, or something
similar).

I may be wrong, but it's my understanding that the Limbach is not much
different than a VW engine.

True, though the Limbach is/can be certified, uses different heads and
various other bits and pieces.
In principle it is the same engine as the VW.
