Definitely change the water pump, cheap insurance.
You should also plan to change the tensioner and idler pulleys,
especially if they spin very easily which usually means the grease
has been consumed and or if you can detect any axial play in the
bearing. The tensioner should be OK as long as it is difficult to
compress (you should need a vise to compress it).
