Replace these parts (some will be swapped from the old engine)
Oil cooler lines - yes(swap)
Voltage Regulator - check
Water Pump - yes
Vacuum pump - if the engine has 250k miles on it replace it
Rear main seal - yes - crank has to come out to do upper half
Chain tensioner (?)
Timing Chain (?)
Front crank seal - yes
Oil pump - yes
Torque converter pressure plate - only if damaged
Check bearings - replace bearings - parts are not too pricy and you may as well as long as you have the crank out
glow plugs - only as needed
Test injectors
Thermostat - new
All radiator hoses - new
Engine mounts - new
Temp gauge - no
A/c hoses (swap) - have em pressure tested while out of the car
Fuel supply pump - rebuild
Breather tube - only if needed

Put the injection pump gasket on there too. I would most definitely replace the chain guides. It makes it way too easy with the engine on a stand and the crank/front seal out. You will want to replace the oil pump chain tensioner and spring too. I can forsee the future - the oil pump chain tensioner will be worn. If you need to try to save money you could always drop the stuff that you can do with the engine in the car - vacuum pump, timing chain and tensioner. I would make sure all the timing chain slide rails get replaced while the engine was torn down.
