How if i want to have my players face off a god where can i find there stat blocks and other things about them there not in the monster manual or dm guide
Wizards of the Coast might produce a book sometime in the future with the stats of Gods and Goddesses in, but from what I have seen on their streams, they don't seem to think that deities should have stat blocks that allow them to be fought and killed by mortals.
I don't work for WotC, so don't have any inside knowledge on that, it's just info from their videos I have watched.
If you want your PCs to fight against Gods/Goddesses, then you need to come up with stats yourself or take a look at stats from previous editions of the game and convert them.
use Dieties and Demigods from 3.5. It's not the right system but who cares? They're gods. Doesn't it make sense they would not follow the same rules as mere mortals?

Normally I would say not to mix editions, but the reasoning laid out here is just too perfect.
And any suggestions for cites that produce random duenguns that are fully stocked ?
www.donjon.com has a suite of random generators for many games including a dungeon generator that is coded for 5e.
As to the other questions about Gods and Stats and such. I would follow the suggestions of others and look up 3.5 rules that mentioned the Avatars of the Gods having certain stats. Now, the shift to 5e will leave them a bit wonky, but as stated before they really shouldn't follow the rules of mortals. Give them loads of Legendary and Lair actions (Lair described as Home Plane for instance), make them deal like insane damage to a character just by looking hard at them. (Think Percy Jackson novels).
But, as an aside, just because something has stats does not mean your PCs should/could fight it! I would have NPCs flat out telling them: Elminster Voice "Contain yourself! This is one that cannot be FOUGHT!"
There are hundreds of homebrew stats online and I reckon you can search their name up in google, write dnd statblock after, and then find a link or pinterest image to it. Good luck on your search!

Hey!! I've played DND for maybe two to three years or so, so I'm still pretty new and only know the basics and such. I love SIlvery Barbs, and I'm always up to chat if you want :)

What kind of gods? I'm assuming a true god, not a god's aspect (since the god itself would be more challenging as a BBEG). Like the suggestions, I think you probably should tweak older books or make your own god. I would say from personal experience that you should start with the old Fizban's Treasury of Dragons book (which has both the Aspects of Bahamut and Tiamat) and just edit from there, since there aren't many stat changes from 5E to 5.5E, but you could try older books.

Okay thanks

I would never have players fight the actual gods. If anything, they would fight an avatar of a god.
