Where can one find the principles/teaching for this from a pre-V2 source?

Do you mean teachings for under what circuмstances a couple should live as brother and sister, or teachings for what living as brother and sister entails?

How about St Joseph and the Blessed Virgin Mary?

Apart from them, there were many saints who were married but did not consummate the marriage and others who put aside the carnal nature of marriage for the good of the Kingdom. I will try to name a few.

Then there are those who have agreed to live separate religious lives, like st Conrad and his wife Euphrosyne and St Nicholas of Flue.
