Quick Timing Belt Questions...

I just bought a used '96 Accord LX sedan (w/ the F22B2 - non-VTEC engine); it has 123000 miles on it, and I have no maintenance records. The first item of business it to change the timing belt. I have found several write ups about doing this, and I have a downloaded FSM, but all of the procedures are for the F22B1 VTEC engines.

1) Can anyone confirm that the procedures are the same for both engines, or is the F22B2 different?

2) Also and I want to make sure I take care of anything else that is important while the timing belt is getting done; what else should I change? I know that the other 2 drive belts need to be done, as well as the water pump; should I also have engine seals done during this time, and if so which ones?

3) I see that the valve cover has to come off to access the timing belt cover, so it seems like a good time to change plugs/wires/dist cap and rotor --- anything else that you all recommend?

Thanks for any responses
