Although making your own steam boiler is an easy way to blow yourself up. There's a lot of energy in pressurised steam and making a strong enough boiler is very difficult.
Can't help you with where to find the parts on a 777, but you should consider a Sterling cycle steam engine. Low pressure, very efficient, much safer. High pressure steam would be insane without purpose built pressure vessels.
