RE: timing belt
Replacing the belts is part of the maintenance of the car...items that wear need changed everynow and then. Replacing a camshaft is often a performance mod, rather than a maintenance. Camshafts are solid and grinded down to the profile (or shapes) that it takes. So for maintenance don't worry about the cam.

A timing belt rotates your cam gear...your cam gear is connected to you camshaft. It's called a timing belt, because the position of your cam gear effects the timing of your camshaft.
