No the VVTi mechanism will not fall apart.Its a long tube with cut outs for the oil distribution.
Pin clips are
90521-25004 BUT that is for the OEM
Dont know if they will be any good for you as piston guy should supply the rings, wrist pin and clips all together.
Even Toyota dont have a part number for the pins. You have to buy the whole piston.
NOTE : SAME GOES WITH THE CAPS. Toyota DOES NOT SELL any of them separatly. Damage a crankshaft cap you need to buy a whole head.
If they are worn , need to buy a new head the dont have bearings that you can machine the cam.
Damage the crankshaft caps , buy a new block but at least you can buy bigger bearings.
