Do the HB, oil pump o-ring, and main seal.
Pull the timing chain tensioner out and see how far extended it was (easy to see once out), if near limit, replace chain, otherwise no.
Replace tensioner if you've been getting excessive chain noise, otherwise no (make sure to lock the tensioner all the way in before reinstalling it if not replacing)
Rod bearings???
Overhaul???
These engines, if properly taken care of, will go 200+k.
The HB, oil seal and main seal are known maintanance items.
The rest, why????????????
