Don't know anything about the V6 always ran diesels but in the normal scheme of things only the gasket needs replacing unless the cover has been damaged.
You can often make a replacement gasket by applying a bead of silicone sealant around the edge of the cover, after thoroughly cleaning it of course, then allowing it to set overnight before refitting it.
