Did the water pump and belt on mine and only took about hour or so. Don't think they can be repaired but are not that much to buy.

Just changed mine as was doing the cam belt anyway. You can get the full step by step guide from the workshop manual. When your in there would do the belt at the same time. Its pretty straight forward just take your time and toque it all up and make sure timings is right.
