Roger Clark are the daddies , but they are expensive- left hand rocker cover gasket set £45!! I used them for most of my gaskets etc when rebuilding my engine.

Scooby Clinic sells a timing belt, but it's not a genuine Subaru part, but they use them on their own modified engine rebuilds, ( I got one on mine) if memory serves, I think it was about £75.

I can also change the belt for you mate, to be honest mate, about the only thing I can't do with a car is remapping

if you don't know the history of the car, it's best to have the belt changed for safety's sake
