Any chance they're removing the timing chain cover as part of that job? If so, replace the water pump (cheap and easy, should do it anytime that thing is open really), and consider upgrading the oil pump to the Nismo one that's not so likely to grenade at high revs. If it were me (and my circumstances may be different), even if they weren't planning to open the timing chain cover, I'd just take advantage of having the engine out of the bay and do those two things anyways.
