240 head job, to-do and parts list... 200 1983

Girlfriend brought the 83 240 (na) home with what sounds like an existing exhaust tic having become reeealy loud. I knew it was there, one of the ports has no studs at all on it, and I'm assuming they broke flush with the head, somebody swapped that head on awhile back it looks like. So, parts car to the rescue, I need to get the replacement head skimmed, and new valve seals I can install, the car ran well last it was used so I'm not worried about guides at the moment. So, check my parts list for me..

Headgasket set, probly scantech and probly a non-scantech actual headgasket.
Headbolts? They are an angle torque/stretch deal aren't they?
I have timing belt and tensioner, I have v-belts, I have accy bracket bushings.
New exh mani studs and bolts.
Injector seal set, because it's probly due.
I have a non-rotting wiring harness to put in while I'm at it.
T-stat, the heater core hoses on the back there I guess.

That's all that comes to mind, what other hoses are likely to be bad or need replacing, I don't want to pull the oil seperator since the lower hose might break, I have a flametrap and hose in my parts stock I think. The secondary ignition stuff is pretty new. I have filters and such. What am I missing?
