Many folks recommend using OEM but I took my chance and bought one at O'Reilly 4 months ago. So far so good. It is not leaking.
Camshaft seal is also recommended for replacement but there is little oil pressure there and if it does not leak I would leave it.
I would also replace a water pump. It took me about 10 hours to do the timing belt and I did not want to do it again just to do the water pump.
Good luck,

Thanks a lot for your reply. I found a time belt kit on amazon:

It also has other sealers other than crankshaft and camshaft seal. I am wondering if it's worth to buy. Any suggestions?
