I seem to have misplaced the service book for my '98 V70 AWD. It's rolling up on 120,000 miles and I'd like to keep it going for the foreseeable future. What service items should I perform or have checked at this interval?

(I seem to remember the timing belt at 70K intervals instead of 60K, and I just changed the air and cabin filters).

Also, there is a small oil leak. My mechanic took a quick look and said it looks like a cam seal leak. Is this something I can let go until I have the timing belt replaced, so long as I check the oil regularly, or is that an ill-advised strategy?

Thanks
