otherwise I agree with you for the other miscellaneous charges.
The water pump is supposed to be replaced when the timing belt is done. It's easier and cheaper to do it all at once, than to have to tear the car apart again later. He wasn't trying to screw you over into replacing the water pump, it needs/needed to be done.

Just my two cents.
