you don't have the pullers and installers for the balancer thats #1
it would be in your best interest to remove the oil pan as well and clean it - it will make putting the timing cover back on a lot easier and gluing it up so nothing leaks --#2
caution if you are not very carefully taking the cam out it will scratch the cams bearings it ( the cam ) has to be rotated as its removed - the lobes on it will scratch the bearings going out as well as going in - they make a tool for that as well ( holding the cam so it can be easily removed ) a 3 inch long 5/16 - 18 bolt will also do the job #3
i also would change the oil pump but for sure you must check the oil pump drive shaft it has a plastic retainer on it and they are always broken ( heat mostly causes it ) but you want it to be their it keeps the shaft from chaffing the slot in the pump #4
and for sure you have no way to check the cam you bought to see if it is on spec ( degreeing it ) i guess is out of the question -- #5
you can rent the tools for the removal its a 3 slotted hole looking thing first as you will need time to clean all that you remove first before installing so only rent the take off for now -- #6
once you have the balancer off look at the spot the seal rides on if its a high milage motor it will have a gruve worn in it if so the make a gasket kit that comes with a repair cone that installs to fix it instead of buying a new balancer -- good luck -- jz
