i'd check to make sure whoever is going to put the cams in has the tools, definately makes the job a lot easier.... this saves you money on labour.
but to answer your question, no, you would not need them if you are not installing them yourself.
as far as the cam belt goes, if you do not have a lot of mileage on the car or just changed the belt, you could remove that from the list aswell. if you have 60k+ on the belt in the car, i HIGHLY suggest getting the belt with the cams and gears.
On a side note, you will need to buy a valve cover gasket and cam seals for this install. i highly suggest getting the OEM Ford parts for this, i have had a lot of problems with the cheap aftermarket stuff not fitting propperly or leaking within 10,000kms.
