The Gates kit (Gates TCKWP329) is $132 shipped on Ebay. It's $131 on RockAuto, not sure if that includes shipping.

Alright definitely gotta get the external noise checked out then. I just saw a super old thread earlier in Acurazine with a google search and some members were saying 105k/7yr mark for the timing belt. I always thought it was 105k/10yr mark, at least what I was told to say when I was working at the service department over at a Honda dealer.

Here's a pic of the drive belt(?), looks pretty dirty, but I didn't see any tears or anything. I have to record the sound

Yeah I know, but I know sometimes people replace the drive belt too when they do the timing belt and water pump.

I just brought up the timing belt because of some information I seen from here about some 7yr mark.
