Depending on how many miles are on the car and whether the belt has ever been changed, I miight consider replaciing the tensioner as well as the water pump while it was apart.

No special coolant needed.
I would do the tensioner pulley and idler pulley.
Did you break a belt?
If so most likely most of the intake Valves are bent.

You might want to change the cam seals if they are leaking. I'd pick up a serp belt too since you're going to have to take it off anyway.
