Question Need to replace the valve covers, had one question

Hey guys, ended up finding out its my valve covers leaking, I am trying to buy everything I need to get it done, so far I need two valve covers and the gaskets.

My question is should I replace other gaskets while I am in there? like upper or lower plenum gaskets? I just dont want to do something twice if I have it apart I might as well replace other gaskets while I am in there.

While at it might as well replace the lower plenum gasket. If you have a lot of miles.

PCV valve also if other covers don't come w it already. The upper plenum gasket can be reused if you're careful w it.
