I'd probably change the oil pump too. Might have lost some performance in that time

Water pump, aux belt, have a good look at the rollers and tensioners. And +1 for the oil pump. It pays off to treat these ladies well, even though it can be a bit costly Mr. Green

I would change the oil pump.

I would also powerflush the gearbox & change the transmission oils.

Body earthing strap - seem to cause issues on older vehicles as they corrode. Mine on the service and MOT list for end of Feb.
