here's basically nearly every bit of info you'll need:

Swap a Magnum engine into your classic Mopar |

Everything you need to know to get started on your Dodge Magnum engine swap!

www.magnumswap.com

then use the search function here, or google with the search specific to this forum and you should be able to find any info that you need.

unless you have a very specific question, your query could span pages and pages of response. the most pointed will be why a 5.2 instead of a 5.9 so know that going in.

more to your question: because you're not running a mechanical pump, nothing really needs to be done. you may have to drill and/or tap the heads to hang the acessory brackets, but not always. if you poke around on the magnumswap site they have a whole section about sealing the oil pan to the timing cover, and there's numerous threads here.
