how to insulate and drywall garage ceiling patch

We had a leak that spanned the garage ceiling and now have 2 decent size holes. We need to replace the insulation and drywall. There are pipes and electrical in that space and I don’t want to pay $1k for this seemingly simple repair.

I know I should get 5/8 drywall but what about insulation and how do I insulate around these things? I have foam pipe insulation I’m going to put in and I know I should get a faced insulation. Anything special to do around the pipes and wires?

This is a non-heated garage ceiling with living space above- located in Pittsburgh PA.
