Write equation for the formation of Pb(NO3)2.

Attempt:
Pb(s) + 2 NO3 (g) => Pb(NO3)2 (s) ?

This is using standard enthalpies of formation by the way. Do polyatomic ions stay together when writing out these formation equations?

No! Every constituent element start with their standard states.

So it would be
\mathrm{{Pb}_{(s)}} + \mathrm{{N_2}_{(g)}} + 3\mathrm{{O_2}_{(g)}} \to \mathrm{{Pb(NO_3)_2}_{(s)}}
since these are the most stable form of lead, nitrogen, oxygen and lead(II) nitrate under standard condition.
