“Most of the engineering drawings and tooling were destroyed. “

That’s not true. There are multiple copies of Saturn V plans on microfiche including a set at the National Archives. However, it would not make sense to replicate technology from the 1950s.

Some drawings are available, most are not. NASA is doing a reverse engineering task now to disassemble and figure out parts of the Saturn V. Techs complain about wild-life nests in some of the equipment.
