Hi
you will need to remove the head bolts as they go through the carrier , so should remove the head, you will then be able to replace any plastic head dowels with steel , replace injector washers / seals etc.
bit unusual to have to replace tappets if less than 5-600 000 kilometres though as they don't sit on the camshaft so don't wear much.
make sure you order the correct thickness head gasket and replace the head bolts with genuine or oem
