Default Budget Jaguar Build x-type

FHi!
Few months ago i bought my Jaguar x-type from salvage auction. I didn't think i would win it but it went so cheap that i had to bid on it. Paid about 550euro for it delivered. When these cars go for 3000-5000e here in Finland when in good condition.
Currently its almost done, also fixed some surprise rust holes in the sills.Now I struggle with front suspension alignment and oil leaks. The lower wishbone, or whatever its called was bent, so i replaced it, but the car still has about +1 to +2 camber on right front wheel when it should be -1 to 0. Any ideas what i should check next. I have thought about replacing the front sub frame, but working outside with basic tools it might be too difficult?
