No, just the gasket needs to be changed. Do you have a factory oil cooler or not? If you DO, then you will need 2 gaskets. WITHOUT the cooler, there is just 1.

With cooler, numbers 4 and 5: http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?...71&hg=11&fg=30

Without cooler, number 4 only: http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?...67&hg=11&fg=30

Obviously, you need to verify this is where your leak is coming from. It's the most common one I see on N54's, though.
