You'll need to remove the vacuum pump to access the bolt holding the IP timer gear to the IP shaft, so get a new gasket for that. New copper washer for the timing chain tensioner.
I did not have the timing chain basket, and I've done the job with out it, by myself. If you get a helper to hold the timing gear in place while you move the IP into place, you'll be fine.
