Default Which of these are reusable???

I did a search but I still have some questions. I'm doing a h/c swap and I'm wondering which of these gaskets are reusable and which are not?

Intake gaskets
Exhuast gaskets
egr gaskets
egr seals
smog pump gaskets
vapor vent pipe seals
header bolts

These are the only items in question, everything else I already have. The car is a 99 with about 21k miles. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

All you need are the following:
2 water pump gaskets
2 AIR tube gaskets
1 EGR gasket

Everything else is reusable and should be fine. Even the gaskets I listed above are reusable some of the time, but they might as well be replaced while you were in there. The others really dont have much of a need to be replaced.
