Replacing #8 injector

I need to replace the #8 injector... Aside from the injector itself, what other parts/gaskets/etc. will I need to get in before I get started? Any tips and tricks for getting at that one?

You don't need any gaskets, because the valve cover gaskets are reusable.

The driver's side is not bad to work on. The only tricky part is the valve cover bolt by the firewall. I use a 12mm wiggle socket on a long extension to get to that one.
