Default tore it down

ok so I tore it apart today. wht i found was a crack between the two comp rings and another one between the 2nd comp ring and the oil ring. so now i'm looking for parts. are the parts available on this site? i figure i need piston, rings, and gasket set.

should i do something better than stock at this time?

i have a couple reassembly questions.

do you guys orient the ring gaps a certain way
what line and what pointer on the crank do i use as tdc for chain installation
i'm thinking tdc for cam position lines up two small holes on cam sprocket with the top of the head, is this correct?
torque specs for head/cylinder?

under the phillips screw on the tensioner there is a flat blade screw, i can turn this and collapse the tensioner. is this what you do to assemble and if so must you hold the flat screw until you get it back in?

thanks alot!
