I am replacing all the timing cover seals. When I pulled the cover I noticed the water pump drive shaft has some play. It will move slightly from side to side. Is this normal or should I replace the bearing and is it sold as an assembly or just the bearing?

Thanks,

That's normal. Once the water pump and coupler is installed that movement will be gone.
