The aux belt didnt fail and was actually still on the alternator, tensioner and water pump when it was taken off. I think in this case its unlikely to be that.
Agreed, yours was different, just explaining to Lizzie Zoom why waterpump does need replacing a set intervals.  You experience has shown another reason as well, though the end result was the same  :'(

Check the water pump pulley is not loose on the pump flange

OMG great news!!!

The Omega has been fixed and is running sweet as a nut.

The timing belt HAD jumped 3 teeth. Luckily it didnt cause any damage. I'm well chuffed.

 :y

Just shows how tough these engines are!
