I am having my engine dropped quite soon for a clutch change.

What else should i check while the engine is out, I know its a good idea to do the valve clearence, front cam chain seals, rocker cover gaskets and spark plugs.

Is there anything else i should consider ?

Crank/main/pulley seals if they show signs of leaking.

oil sender seals

May as well check the spark plug wires. Perhaps repaint the engine tin?

Replace your engine insulation pad (if in rough shape) - fairly impossible with the engine in place!

I have to replace my engine insulation pad as well when I drop my motor this summer. Anyone know the part number or suitable aftermarklet replacement?

Kirk, I have seen engine insulation pads at AppBiz. I have no affiliation and no experience with them:

An alternative might be to use an asphalt polymer like Dynamat (http://www.dynamat.com/) When I ordered my speaker covers from Parts Express I also picked up some generic Dynamat like sheets:
