You could try www.kingcomponents.co....ugeot.html (googled them) or someone like Ferrari Piston Services (know called FPS) or a local motor factor .. not Halfords, a proper one!
Are the pistons badly damaged?
You might also need to double check the big-end shells. As the con-rods are coming off to replace the pistons you;ll be able to check these. These are soft and on some other cars tend to get a flat-spotted due to the impact and this can them lead to big-end failure later.
