When you do the timing belt make sure to install new crank seals. I dont know what year car you have but mine is an 87 Camry. My backyard mechanic friend and I did a water pump change, replacing the timing belt at the same time. Now 3 months later, I have the crank seal leaking oil. Guess we should have changed the seal when we were in there. For a couple of bux and little extra work its well worth it.

Yes, I agree. While replacing the timing belt, it's recommended by Toyota that you replace the water pump as well. It would also be a wise idea to get at those seals while they're accessible.
