You need the hose that connects the wp to the block, you won't typically find that at a local parts store, very important.

Also not sure what the silicone is for, you you mean silicone sealer or silicone spray? Sealer you could use to hold the o-ring in place.

Oh speaking of o-rings you need one of the gray ones for the end of the heater hose pipe where it enters the wp, they usually are hard and or cracked and need to be replaced since it's removed anyways.

You're replacing or assuming you need to replace a bunch of stuff i wouldn't bother with, although most of it is stuff I'd like to know I could get to right away in case I needed it. Especially what you call the expansion tank, which must be the pressure tank, I hardly ever replaced those. Why? The expansion tank I replaced in the case of blown head gaskets where there was a load of oily crap in there because it's about impossible to clean.
