Air oil seperator at Clutch time

Is it common to replace the Air Oil separator at clutch time? I looks pretty easy to get to and they also did it on the "Wheeler Dealer" episode when they re did a 996 Cab.

Clutch time is the easiest time to get at the AOS.

I did it when the clutch was replaced. Also had the bearing upgrade. Predictive maintenance.

My engine had been replaced already due to an IMS bearing failure, so it has the newest variation so it can't be changed out without taking apart the whole engine.

I did mine when I did the IMS bearing. Plan on replacing AOS the hoses as they get very brittle. The emissions vacuum tubes are also suspect as they and the vacuum canister. They are not expensive but they are a pain if you don't deal with them as you will pull a 410 code if they leak after you put it back together.
