Re: timing belt?
I would start by checking the other belts first. If the noise is still there then it could be a bad timing belt tensioner. Timing belts need to be replaced every 90K miles. A bad tensioner can cause a belt to break which could result in serious engine damage. Water pumps should be replaced with the timming belt since it's driven by the t/belt and it's all apart anyway. It's just senseless not to replace it while it's all apart. Nothing like having the t/belt replaced and find out a month later the water pump is leaking. Now you need to replace the timing belt again along with the water pump.
