resurrecting this one...

so i've been acquiring parts to address the noise issue, just wondering if anyone has anything to add to this list that i should be doing while i'm at it...here's everything i have planned:

• VANOS refurb - new seals and bearings from Besian Systems
• valve cover gasket/grommets/spark plug seals
• spark plugs
• water pump
• water pump pulley - replace with metal pulley
• oil filter housing seal
• belts
• belt idlers/tensioners -- here's where i'm a bit confused as to what i need. i have not purchased these parts yet. how do i know if i have a hydraulic tensioner or not? can someone clarify what i should be replacing here?

as always, thanks for your input and guidance!
