There is a Gates on RockAuto with a lifetime warranty for $97.79

( they list 6 - from $51.79 to $157.79 )

Wonder what's with this 79 cent thing they have ?

It's really a pretty easy ( although somewhat messy ) DIY.
If you unplug and remove the fan and shroud, there's plenty of room to work.
You will need a female Torx socket set, and about 2 gallons of Zerex G05 antifreeze before starting.

Amazon Amazon

and

Amazon Amazon

( you can get the Gates pump from Amazon also )

Amazon Amazon

Do a full flush while you are at it, and refill with 50/50 G05/distilled water.

Can we assume that there was a massive water leak or noise from the pump? These service centers will tell you anything, remember they lie with a straight face.
$6oo?
