Don't use a gasket on the oil pan. From the factory, there was just RTV. A gasket will start leaking. Just use a bead of RTV. Another thing is that while you can drop the oil pan with the engine in the truck, most will agree that by the time that you get done, it would have been about the same to pull the engine out. If you're going to change out the rear seal, they you either have to drop the transmission or pull the engine. It's a one piece seal. Valve cover gaskets and the sway bar end links are the ones that you can do with the engine in the truck. I say this since you also want to reseal the oil pan. Another thing that I found out last summer (2018) that may help. While reinstalling the passenger's side valve cover, the gasket would hit the back of the alternator pivot bolt and drop out of place. I finally had to loosen the pivot bolt up and then I had no issues. I hadn't run into that before, but you can be sure that I'll be doing that every time from now on. Just things to be aware of.
