You will have to build them yourself.

You are likely to have to start with the following:

  https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/tags/RELEASE_8_EOL/

to get a last-known-working ports infrastructure, and then merge
specific fixes from the last 3 years of ports commits that you
find you need.

Fair warning: IMHO this will be a non-trivial exercise.
