So far so good. Definitely feels as good if not better than before so no complaints there.

Thanks for all your help.

Thats great news :)
I think you got all that work done just in time
Ive had a look at the water pump that came off the car and it looks to me like it was leaking quite a bit past the seal at the top- maybe that explains the white powder down that side of timing belt side of the block and the fact it took a load of coolant to top up ;)
