I wouldn't say you needed all of it, but it would be a good idea while you've got the engine apart to replace them, as you've have to take the engine apart again after to replace those parts.

You don't NEED it all, but its probably the best thing to do if you're sorting the head out.
The water pump's collapse and snap the cambelt, so its probably wise to do that, and if your engine overheated, new thermostats isnt a bad idea either.
