377 miles each way apparently, I expected that to be a lot longer!
Just for peace of mind, I'd personally check everything before leaving, better to find out at home than 200 odd miles away.
I'm no expert, not by any sense of the word, but this is what I'd do;
Clutch and brake fluid iirc is a replace every couple of years thing, plugs I'd check when you change the oil as it's only a few minutes to do, valve clearences I'd do every couple of oil changes or as soon as they start to get noisy.
And the bits I'm not sure about;
Iirc timing chains can go on a very long time, but it'd be worth having a look at it before this journey, definitely re-torque the head before this trip but I don't know mileages where people usually do it and the O/D filter, pass, I don't have O/D so I'm not sure how much of a pain it is to get too. But again, better to be sure.
Fuel hose size, pass, can you not take an old one with you for comparison?
Like I said, I'm no expert, but that's my take on it.
Oli.
