Here is what I would do (or I should say I am going to do) when I go on a 11 day liveaboard 300 miles offshore with nothing. I should note I won't need to "buy" any of this as I already have the gear with the exception of the dump valve/inflator valve.
Redundant computer (always dive with 2 anyway so it's part of my gear setup)
Redundant reg set (including spg gauge) this allows me to swap components if I have any hoses fail or the reg itself
2 Spare mask (always bring one on each dive anyone so it's part of my gear setup) so I really only have 1 "spare"
o rings of all shapes and sizes (for my din regs, SPG gauge, and LP hoses)
extra dump valve/inflator valve for my wing
spare batteries for a go pro and extra sd card!
I am someone who doesn't like to rely on gear that I'm not familiar with. A liveaboard is a magical opportunity to experience things and the last thing you want to do is be in a situation where you are uncomfortable with "unfamiliar" gear or have to rely on other divers or the boat/crew to compensate for your unpreparedness.
