Default 97 powerstroke... what to know and check?

hey yall. so i have a 97 ps crew cab 8 foot bed f-350. i bought the truck without a key, idm, and starter relay but knew why they were missing. (someone from work where i bought it needed some parts before i bought it that ***). but anyways i got it for 1500 and it has 250,000 on the odometer. the pan has a pin hole in it so i need a new one before it fires up. what should i look for as far as what should i be replacing when i have everything apart. i have the whole front clip off cause its gettin a 86 front clip and bed b4 paint. and suggestions would help. im new to ps's kinda and own a bunch of idi's thanks
