I was originally told that I could only buy a complete rebuild gasket set, that was obviously not the case. I got the gaskets that I needed at Advanced Auto and I?m ready to put it back together once everything is cleaned up. Would you use gasket sealer or put it in dry as was done at the factory? I guess I have to pull all of the push rods to get this thing back in too.

I always use a gasket sealer on intake gaskets. Indian Head or Permatex always has done the trick for me, though it can be a pain to clean if you have to do it again in the future. Don't spare the silicone on the ends either, you can always cut off the extra after it sets up. You shouldn't have to pull the pushrods out to get the intake in, maybe the valve covers :-( ? but I wouldn't think the pushrods themselves. Ah, what the hell do I know, I never had a V-6 to play around with.
