Water pump and timing belt = $70 (if you do it yourself)

Thanks for the heads up. I had all the belts changed late last fall, so they are OK. I'll get right under there again and see if I can get a better idea of exactly where it's coming from. I would much rather spend the $300 (that's $70 US, isn't it? j/k) than have to replace the engine, that's for damn sure. Is there anything else I should look at while I've got things apart if I do end up replacing it?
