i will be swapping my cam, timing belt, and vc gasket soon... would it also be wise to install a new water pump and oil pump while i'm @ it??? i have been thinking about installing a udp too...

The oil pump will be inside the oil pan, it's gear driven, and not really related to the rest of these. Shouldn't need anything anyway.

Water pump yes if it's about 75,000 miles or higher. I don't remember your mileage, but if it's about 50 or less I'd save it until next time unless you know you have a problem.

Good time for phenos if you wanted. For the belts, wouldn't make a UDP too much easier, but it would save scrapping out the belts for smaller ones down the road. (I think this is V belts only though, timing belt is still the same). Might as well do the V belts either way while you're at it.
