Prepping in advance for a impeller change

[120_i/o]

Well, it is finally getting warm here, and thought now is the time to start ordering service parts. I plan on doing my first impeller change along with greasing splines, and so forth.
I ordered my pump kit, and was wondering if there is a gasket(s) that I will need to replace for the drive cases once I reassemble them?

Ok, so....my manual doesn't say anything that I could see/find on other gaskets, but I did see them for sale as a kit. Do I need these?

I can't think of any gaskets required during an impeller change - kit should have everything except spline grease - get some of that - I like the castrol pyroplex blue- it will still be on the splines 3 years later when you do it again
