I'd consider a slow drip refresh of coolant hoses, tanks and misc bits...whatever the previous owner(s) didn't do in the past 10 years or so. The heat the M62 motors put out is hard on the plastic bits, expansion tank, etc. especially. If you do it all at once you may want to consider a new radiator, if yours is the original. The end caps are plastic and can get brittle and fail spectacularly.
Also, take a good look at your vacuum lines, especially if they have been exposed to slow fluid leaks.
