Change the oil filter, and that's all you'll have to change. You can even
drain and re-use the oil filter if you don't have another one handy and the
one you have is relatively new.

I took the fuel pump apart and found that both rubber blatters were torn.  I
checked the oil dipstick and it was over the fill level.  The oil smells a
little of gas.

I will change the oil, but do I have to change any gaskets like the top
cover gasket or replace anything else?

Thanks,
