Mine came with everything I needed (gaskets and coolant tubes/blockoffs). So can't help with the P/N's on those. If yours is new it should come with them as well. Do you still have EGR? If so you will need the blockoff plate for the manifold because the system has to leave. Nothing else is needed. It's a rather straight forward/easy install.

Easy install.
Just pick up the coolant crossover pipe and the blockoff plugs.
Be carefull removing and installing the intake manifold or you will break the oil pressure sending unit. I did, and i picked up a new unit from O'Reillys for $26.
It just so happened I had a failing unit, because I had a slight rise in oil pressure.

I reused my old coolant tube gaskets, I have no problems to my knowledge.
I would get the correct hardware (pipe and plugs) to avoid potential headackes.
