Yes, the UK cars have vented rear disks. As to finding used calipers for sale, all I can suggest is 'camping' on e-bay, and waiting, and waiting. The SVX is a rare car over here: there were only about 280 ever sold and probably less than half that number have survived. I think that I'd be a little wary of used calipers, and I'd certainly refurbish the seals etc. before using them.
