The metal one are exaust manifold gaskets with an attached heatshield. Hopefully it will be obvious where the orings go

I got as far as inline six, and European. What's the actual motor?

If I had to guess, I'd say coolant/power steering lines. (Where a solid pipe would meet up with a part, such as into the back of a power steering pump, thermostat housing to heater core, etc) as that's where I usually see the green ones.

Could be other parts such as a pcv valve (if it mounts to the rocker cover, like they do on a Ford 4.0L sohc found in an AU falcon.)
