    The previous owner confirmed that he had not changed the PCV plate so I ordered the PCV plate and gaskets for the front and rear. Is it possible/smart to do this job without taking the manifold off?

    possible but a royal pain in the ass and if you strip one of the dozen of so really tight shallow headed torx you are really in for fun, plus the lower gaskets can leak as they are just as old and oil hardened as the front and rear plenum gaskets
