Default Question about valve cover gasket on SC300

I searched and searched. I couldn't find any info i was looking for. I found a lot of threads about valve cover gaskets but not much info. there's only a write up for an SC400.

If anyone has done this before, I just wanted to know if i have to remove the throttle body and that little part of the intake manifold. That way, I'll buy the gaskets for them too. I don't just wanna buy the valve cover gasket if i need to remove anything else with a gasket.

Just wanna be prepared so it won't take longer than it needs to.

Thanks for the info in advance.

You definitely need to take the throttle body and the y-pipe off. Buy the gaskets for those too.

Here's what it looks like when it's all off:
