I can't help with main bearings, big-ends, camshaft bearing caps etc.
But to my knowledge, basically all VW engines (at least the petrol ones, 4-cylinder EA827 and 5-cylinder EA828) from that era had the cylinder head stretch-bolts torqued to
40 Nm in sequence
60 Nm in sequence
90° in sequence
90° in sequence

Sequence: (The two rows of numbers are the two rows of bolts, number indicates sequence)

10..........4..........2..........6..........8

.7..........5..........1..........3..........9

Big-ends are 45Nm

Oil the threads before tightening
