Were it me,
and while it is out of the vehicle, I would at least pull the pan and plastic gauge the rods and and mains to double check the information you have at hand and make sure everything is tightened and torqued as specified. Short effort for long satisfaction. When that all checks out you can pre-assembly lube it all at the same time and then install it with peace of mind. Then pull the plugs and spin up the oil pressure and have many miles of happy driving. JMO.
