I've never pulled the head on a 300 diesel motor so I wouldn't have thought you'd need to remove the tensioner. I guess in your case I would have expected every gasket necessary for the job in a head set. IMO, no, you're not being too picky.
I've never done anything more mechanically involved on my 300D than pull the valve cover and adjust the valves but then I 've only owned my car for 9 months.
