Where are you located?

I might have one of the DreamWear nasal products that you could just have. I don't think I have the headgear though.
I would need to look. I have a big box of stuff that people have donated...gently used and sometimes brand new...they don't want it to go to waste but don't want it in their house anymore.

Pugsy talked me into trying the nasal route and it is so much better. The filtered air blowing in my nose, for me, helps to keep the passages open.

If you find you can side sleep even with the 1 side plugged, look up some of the cpap pillows to see how they are cut out on the sides. You could experiment with cutting out a cheap foam pillow and see if it helps keep your mask in place, then decide if it would be a worthwhile purchase. And a firm flat pillow that does not allow your head to sink in might help. Sinking into the pillow is one of the common causes of mask displacement.

Well you are about as far away as you can get aren't you.
For the little pieces if you can find them separate....probably is cheaper than trying to ship half way around the world.

Check out Amazon.com international....often they have the best rates for those little items and they get better prices for shipping than I do. Some of the sellers will ship international and it's not horrible costly.
Mask parts are available.

EBay sometimes is another good source for mask parts.

Do the math and see which way works out best for you.

The DreamWear FFM will seal when we sleep on our sides....I know for a fact because I have used it and I sleep 95% of the time on my side.
I can't sleep on my back due to back issues.
Now it does have some extra challenges for fitting...but it can be done. You might need to change bed pillows or position the mask so it isn't touching the mask much.
