Default Anything else I should do while I change my valve covers?

I dont know engines real well. Im gonna be replacing my passenger side valve cover this weekend and im wondering if there's anything else I could service while im in there. Im sure there will be a ton of oil chunks that I could clean up... What's the proper way to do it, and what else can be done?

Sparks are alrdy swapped out. Valve cover comes with new gasket and spark plug tube seals.
