If you are short of cash, take the covers off and inspect it for wear or oil contamination.

P.S. Mine is 5 years old and looks like new.

I've just had my 06 WRX belt changed. I had a look at both of them side to side and there was very little difference. I'm sure it would have been fine to have left in for a long time, but a cambelt is a hell of a lot cheaper than a engine rebuild so get it done as soon as possible mate.
