You may not need new oil return tubes or chain ramps since the engine was done 50k ago, but I'd replace them while I'm in there. They're cheap enough and you might as well.

Thanks for the post and suggestions.
I believe the list you provided matches mine with the exception of the tubes and chain ramps. The chains/tensioners were just done about 800 miles ago (I forgot about the miles I drove since purchase). The tubes were replaced during the last overhaul and look perfect from the bottom. I will proceed cautiously with my dis-assembly in order to determine if any of these basicaly new parts need replacement. I will hold my parts order until I determine the extent of repairs as I understand the magnesium case is prone to studs pulling out requiring more extensive repair.
