... I would like therefore to exchange the "z-corner-bracket", "z-lower-mount" and the "Z-lower-brace" with aluminium ones. Does anyone know a source where to get them from?

IMHO forget about it...
Having searched for a long time I still haven't found any usable or affordable upgrade parts.

The good Ormerod isn't a bad printer but that thing definitely has its limitations. Concerning the X-axis I'm on my reverse way and won't mount another extruder on it but none at all.
On my setup that thing is going to be attached to the Z-axis, it should hold the weight more easily and should not twist. The disadvantage is the longer way for the filament and thus increased play.
IMO this is the only reasonable way to drive multiple extruders with this printer.
