Jobs worth doing while engine is out?

[Tankpants]

So, looks like I might be pulling the engine to replace the inlet manifold. What else do you suggest is done while the engine is out?

Thanks.

Replace all the fuel pipes, fit filter outside of engine bay and check tank connection.
Drop the gearbox as well and change the gearshift bushes.
Clutch and release bearing.
Check bellhousing for oil, usually crankshaft seal.
Clean starter and replace starter bush....

And what I need to do if I pull mine is whip off the fuel tank panel and check the filler neck for leaks....
