Fuel filter, air filter, and drive belt.
I loosely followed this excellent post. I also used this diagram for routing the belt. Very helpful:
One note: When popping the fuel lines there was very minimal fuel, but the fuel filter itself had a few cups of gas in it. Have a container ready when you remove the filter to transfer the gas.

Airbox out. The drive belt has seen better days:
Cheap Contitech installed:
Old fuel filter out and new fuel filter all setup and ready to reinstall:
Lastly, here's the parts order:
