You will only need new studs if any either snap or and not in good nick. to remove them you with need a stud extractor, be careful when using this that you dont snap a stud as then its a big problem. So don't use a large ratchet or air or leccy nut gun.

Shouldn't need new studs unless you want to be bufty and put shiney new ones in lol!! No special tools required either, good socket set is all you should need. A new gasket might be a good idea too, making sure all the gasket faces are nice and clean before the new one goes on
