Engine advice

[MILD99CIVIC]

I had to pull the head off of my D16Y7 yesterday. I plan to change all the belts and the water pump while I have the engine apart. What else should I change while the engine in pieces? The car has 207k miles on it.

This. And as long as you're going to have the valve cover off, do a valve lash adjustment.
