The water pump is located BEHIND the timing belt and to change the pump you would have to pull the timing belt so that's why I changed it, I didnt want to be doing the whole job again in 20k-30k miles. The pump is driven by the accessory belt. It is a DOHC.
From what I found out this engine is a NON-INTERFERENCE engine which means it will freewheel and there will be no bending of valves because there is clearance between the valves and the pistons.
