Congrats on the car. Best advice I can offer is try not to think like a pro mechanic, and assume something is done the usual way, causes trouble with a 928 which has its quirks even for a line Porsche mechanic.
84 is non interference, so no rush on the timing belt, but sounds like its more than due. Since it hasn't been done assume the fuel lines haven't either, those failing start fires, so replacing all the fuel hoses should go to the top of the list. Rubber seals on injectors etc are likely bad too, I would pull the intake and send the injectors out for cleaning and rebuilding, or just get Greg Brown's new kit that upgrades the injection to modern 4 hole types.
Engine looks clean, too clean as in somebody washed it, which is bad since most issues are electrical not dirt or oil related. Cover is missing for the jump post, you need the cap and shield that clips to the fender and prevents water from going into the main 14 pin electrical connection at the jump post.
