My car overheated and sprung a leak from the timing chain cover and the thermostat housing, you can read more about it here.

I've already got most of the accessories off the front, the fan, alternator, steering pump and the brackets and stuff. I'm about to go to the parts store to pick up the tool for taking off the harmonic balancer, a 15/16" socket for the crank bolt and a felpro timing cover gasket set that should include a timing cover to block gasket, the rubber section for the front of the oil pan, the water pump to timing cover gasket, and the crank seal. Is there anything I'm forgetting?
My car has about 81,000 miles, should I bother replacing the timing chain since I'm in there or should I just leave it alone if it looks alright?
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
