Do the cam/crank/auxshaft seals while you're in there. They're cheap, and take you an extra 2 minutes each. (Well, cam & aux take a little longer, as you have to take the pulleys off, which you would not otherwise...)

My crank & auxshaft seals crumbled so badly that I could not remove them, and ended up having to remove the carrier plate they ride in as well. (You'll see if you get in there.) so you may wanna pick that gasket up just in case...
