You shouldn't need to do anything else unless there is a problem. Tensioners are worth doing if they've not been done before, no point having a new camblet and tired old tensioners. I'd do the spark plugs as well and the fuel filter (this is often overlooked-plus it's cheap). As for oil I'd suggest either 10w 40 or at a push 10w 50 but nothing higher. Engine takes 4.5 litres, for gearbox and diff I'd use any good 75w 90 oil, gearbox takes 3.5 litres and diff takes a litre and half IIRC.
