So you are going to pull the engine, take it apart and look at it, not rebuild it, and put it back together? Sounds like a waste of time to me. Why don't you just do a compression test and be done with it?

However, if you are going through the trouble you may as well:
1. Have your injectors cleaned and flow balanced
2. Replace coolant lines
3. Clean the engine bay
4. Have any parts polished that you want polished
5. Good time for the vacuum hose job if it hasn't been done

It's totally your choice, but you can clean up the engine bay pretty well with the engine still in there. You ever see how clean used-car dealerships get the engine bays? It seems like the reasons you are giving for pulling the engine can all be done with the engine still in place. Pulling it out is not a small job.
