Quarter Glass Tint
Here is the complete Nippon Sheet Glass (NSG) M-number schedule and how to decode it (footnote). Note: This is a list (as of 1st March '95) of all the glass types it makes for cars of which the Z32 is a subset.

New OEM engine mount
I know this may be a long shot but does anyone have a spare new (unused) OEM engine mount? Before I go and order another one to make a pair (I already have a new one) I thought I would ask here first.

Richie's "Redzer" rebuild
Without knowing which car your AMG calipers came off (leading or trailing caliper mounting) and assuming the calipers have differential bore pistons then this AP Racing info may be useful to you: "Discs must always pass the small piston first on differential bore calipers"

No balance bar.
If it's anything like this well known plenum modified example then the balance bar has been replaced by a hose (arrowed) and fittings running underneath the plenum from bank to bank.

White UK 300 on eBay
The VIN is not displayed under the window. As Ali says it's on the firewall (arrowed) and on the plate by the radiator. You won't be able to see the engine number. The corrosion checklist you have identified is good start for structural corrosion assuming you won't be able to get the car in the air when you collect. Now that the seller knows it has been Cat C'd, is he able to provide any information on what was actually repaired?

Maybe a previous owner had the original blue tint factory quarters replaced for a ready made dark tints which used green glass as the base. We'll never know, but at least you can now see what glass you have.

NSG M31.08 is the Nippon Sheet Glass Company glass code. If you google NSG "M31.08" you will get hits for Green UV glass. For example: http://yahoo.aleado.com/lot?auctionID=t389877636

Are there any markings on the quarter glass?

It's not clear (at least to me) whether the author is quoting model year (went on sale) or production date (came off the line). A VIN should enable me to look up in FAST and see what glass was used for a particular car. The main point I was referring to was the "This green tint can also appear nearly clear under certain lighting conditions" bit as that could be what Lee was experiencing with his garage lights.

"Beginning in 1995 all JDM and Euro models got “green” tinted glass. This green glass is sometimes thought to be blue in color but it is not to be confused with the early blue colored glass from earlier models. USDM got the same green glass for all 96 models. This green tint can also appear nearly clear under certain lighting conditions. https://z32enjoytheride.wordpress.com/2015/06/19/post-41-9900-spec-uv-insulated-cut-glass/
