Part List for Drive Belt Change . . . Is This Correct?

Just to confirm, when replacing the camshaft drive belt on a 9.5SE V6, the list of parts to replace should be:
1. drive belt (under warranty)
2. belt tensioner
3. guide roller
4. idle pulley
5. water pump (recommended)
6. serpentine/fan belt (recommended)
7. thermostat (recommended)
Is this correct, is there anything missing or incorrect here?
For a warranty covered service this ends up becoming a rather expensive project just in terms of parts. Not including the thermostat (did not get a price on this), and including $55 for 1/2 hour labor to install the water pump, the parts at Reinertsen come to $752 and at JMK $957.80 ($215.80 difference). Does this seem right?
I still have not decided which dealer to go to,although the parts difference does make Reinertsen more appealing. Any thoughts?
It is amazing to me that there should be such a difference in part prices among dealers in same state aprox. 1 hour apart.
