I've fitted the SKF kit and they do indeed come with gates belts, complete with markings. :y

Got mine from Autovaux, IIRC.

So what would you expect to pay for a water pump then ?

I got all my parts for the last service, except the belt kit, from andyc and the water pump was less than £30.

Gates belts tend to snap. These are in mid quality in Opel list.
SKF pumps are not as good as they used to be - I've heard about noisy ones and leaking.

If you are looking for a good quality parts, go for:
- belts: Conti-tech, Bosh
- tensioners - INA (GM supplier)
- pumps - GRAF,Ruville (not as good as GRAF but reliable).

Conti belt + INA tensioners/pulleys  + GRAF pump = ca 120 Pounds
