the metal plate (cover) which the wiring loom passes through on the baulkhead of the engine bay

If you mean the black plate in the centre of the bulkhead it was not fitted to earlier Mini's with the central speedo, also there was no bulkhead hole to cover on the very late bodyshells.

Item 37 2A4362 SHAFT, lower arm 2
Another early 1960s Mini suspension feature was the use of straight lower arm shafts (instead of having the more customary dip in them). The later lower arm shafts are a direct replacement for the early items.

rear wheel bearing dust cover?

Mean the grease cap? If so, then yes BUT it's sort of a standard part used on other cars. Fitted to every Mini though.

Ball joint dust cover?

Yes.

Jacking points?

No, LWB Minis don't have them and use a different jack.

Rear Brake Shoes and return springs
rear brake adjusters

Yes and yes, but again not Mini specific I don't think.
