Default Engine swap on 65 GMC 2500 305 V6

We have a customer truck here that has a 305E engine. It has two dead cylinders with piston and cylinder wall damage. I purchased an engine from a wrecking yard that was listed as a 305. When it arrived, I checked the numbers on the right side of the block and it is a 351. I realize that the timing cover, possibly the oil pan and intake may have to be swapped. It appears those gaskets are the same on both engines. Is there anything else on this swap that will cause a problem? Will the flywheel, clutch etc all bolt on?

Thanks
