Looking for a spares kit for my 1999 Yanmar 4JH3E diesel engine

Am the new owner of a 1999 400 MK II, which my wife and I are very happy with.
We're not having any luck finding a spares kit (belts, filters, injectors, glow plugs) in spite of lengthy on-line searches.
Does anybody know if they still make these spares kits? Or do I have to buy everything separately? If they are available, where?
Thanks in advance!

Haven't ever heard of any spares kits out here.

Very easy to sit at your desk with a parts catalogue for your engine and make a list of spare parts. Take the list to your Yanmar dealer and you've probably saved a few bucks over a parts kit. That's the way I assembled my spare parts list for my boat when I first got it shipped from Florida.

Forgot to mention that you may be able to find your shop maintenance manual and/or parts manual for your engine on this site under downloads.

Westerbeke sells spare parts kits for their engines.
Westerbeke PARTS KIT A -

You could look at those and see what parts they include, and duplicate that with Yanmar parts purchased individually; and then go to Harbor Freight and purchase a watertight ammo box, which is virtually identical to what Westerbeke uses, and is only $10.
