Radiator/Oil filter housing/Thermostat replacement what else to replace in there?

I have an 08 R550 with the M273(5.5l) and the radiator and oil filter housing is leaking, I was told the housing should be replaced due to age as it may leak again soon even with a new gasket, I will be replacing the tstat as a preventative, what else should I replace? The pulley's/tensioners have been done by a previous owner. Thanks!

When it comes to the vehicle itself, absolutely, but I bet I can get more relevant information on the M273 that's shared between the ML550 and the R550 here where I guarantee there are far more ML550's than the R550's in the R class forum.
