First off welcome Danyboy...
Shim/shim tools are for measuring your valve clearances & swap shims if required... Not required for a new cover gasket only... Same time, while in the top end, check your clearances...
As for the cam end caps... Most of the OEM are rubber end caps, if hard, cracked, dried out probably not a bad idea to change but again not required....
Excellent source for KZ parts @ Z1 Ent and APE...

And most definitely... get yourself a manual, preferably OEM shop manual....
