Timing Chain questions...

Well, now it's about time to consider replacing the timing chain. I have
a leak around the edge of the oil pan, and the timing chain cover. Since
both will have to come off to replace the gaskets, AND the engine has
158K on the original chain... What type of chain and sprocket should I
get, and what else should I replace while I'm in there?

In addition, I am also going to pull the intake manifold and see why I am
getting oil blowback up into the air hat (top of TB blades).

Any suggestions?
