Having to change the fuel tank on the 320i SE

what should we get changed while the tank, diff, exhaust etc is out the way?

It had an inspection 2 in march if that makes a difference.

So far:

tank + that rubber bit into the tank

Brakelines front and back

include doing the brake lines that come over the rear axle, nice and easy when the tank is out.
