Depends on who you have do it. Shop will prolly want between $600 and $1000. parts themselves would probably be $200-$300 assuming you are getting a head gasket set and new timing belt/water pump. Takes me about 4.5 hrs to do it and most shops charge $80/hr so figure $300ish in labor.

Depends on your definition of "just". If its over 40k miles I would replace them again. You probably don't need to but whoever is doing it will have the belt off and the pump is just a couple bolts away so there's no use in putting old parts back on.
