I have and early Sp1 with the rectangular pad on the ejection port door. Where can I get the detent, spring and clip for the latch on it?

If you mean the detent inside the rectangular pad, Numrich used to have the detent and the spring, but no one has the "C" clip.  There are some old posts on the subject, I will try to find links to them in a minute.

If you can't find a "C" clip some say you can use a "E" clip

I bought my "guts" from Numrich and they still have them as of a couple months ago, however they don't include a C clip but I was able to find one that worked at a Model RC hobby store

You can get the C clip at any auto parts store. They keep a box of different sizes for carb rebuilding. You need a size 00.
