New intake gaskets needed?

I need to pull the intake manifold to replace a vaccuum hose in the connector at the rear of the intake (Thanks GM!).

Will I need to replace the intake manifold gaskets before I re-install the manifold?

Cheers,
Kent

I don't remember any intake gaskets when we did ours. I think it requires proper seating and torque to yield seating of the bolts.
