I was thinking of dropping the pan since I want to replace that gasket (leaks) and will be replacing the timing cover gasket as well. Really, I'd love to just pull it and rebuild, but need to be able to drive it for another month.

I'm looking at some kits and reading up here as much as I can find. Considering kits with as much included as possible, but there are big differences in price. Does this translate heavily into quality? Example:

ebay timing kit

Napa timing kit

I'd appreciate any suggestions and/or additions. I'll get some gaskets and a water pump too, but would like to get as much done as I can.
