Default intake mani swap--------is it necassary to replace all those o-rings on the injectors & fpr etc

I am changing my intake manifold with another stock one to minimize down time on a direct port install - I was looking through the helms and it says to replace all the o-rings and rubber stuff - is it necessary?

I was going to just replace the throttle body gasket and the intake mani gasket, is that sufficient? Should I change anything else, like:
1. injector o-ring
2. rubber ring on injector
3. seal ring on injector
4. iacv o-ring
5. fpr o-ring

TIA

I'd just change the rest of that stuff if they look worn or damaged.

not necessary but you now have a good list of things to check for when the car runs shitty and idles real high.
