Default Timing Belt replacement and other needed parts...

I'm about to order the parts for my timing belt replacement on my '98 ES300

I need some input/direction to ensure I'm covering all grounds when it comes to this service, as I know other items should be replaced as well.

So far this is what I've compiled and please advise if anything else would be needed/recommended...TIA

1st Image
20-Timing Belt
21-Tensioner Bearing
22-Front Crank Seal
14-Cam Seal (2 needed? one for rear and one for front)
23-Idler Bearing
18-Tensioner Pulleys (needed?)

2nd Image
6-Water Pump with gasket

you dont need 14, you need 15. i just figured it out about 30mins ago.
but your list looks pretty good.
from what ive been reading, people say to change the front main seal/crank seal, but i dont know what that part looks like. oil pump seal as well.
goodluck

from my search, this is what I've been able to come up with.

the vehicle has about 140k miles. this service was done already at about 75k miles, and just covering grounds once again.

so 15 are the cam seals needed, and I would need 2 correct?

which one is the oil pump seal, if you can specify please.

I JUST finished up a T-Belt change a couple hours ago......in 25F degree temps. What crap.

One issue....your Diagram, if I'm not mistaken, is a 3VZ (92/93) ES300.

This is what I recomend:
1: T-Belt
2: Water Pump
3: Cam Seals
4: Crank Seal
5: Tensioner
6: Radiator Hoses
7: Thermostate
8: Thermostate gasket
