AZ surge tank/intake plenum?

i think i need help
the gasket between the dynamic chamber/intake plenum and intake plenum/intake manifold were leaking so i ordered the gaskets from mazdatrix. i removed the 2 manifolds, BAC, secondary fuel rail/injectors.
while i have this off should i also replace BAC/manifold gasket, vacum lines under manifold, o-rings on fuel injectors, and OMP oil lines?
and what would be a good replacement for the OMP oil lines that are stronger/better than the stock ones?

please help

or should i just remove the OMP/oil injectors and block them off and run premix?
it is my DD so removing this and running premix, would cause me to fail arizona emmisions?

That's a good plan. I'd test the oil injectors while everything is apart to make sure they flow freely. If the OMP lines are in good shape reuse them.

Replacing the vac lines is usually a good idea.

can i replace them with some vacum tubing or small fuel line or somthing?

after removing the injectors i know i should replace the o-rings on them but should i replace the pintlecaps, upper an lower gromets, and air bleeds too?
the injectors are fine and all the seals dont leak at all.
