If you're certain that the sound is from the serpentine belt you should check the belt tensioner. A weak tensioner spring will result in slipping and a noisy belt.

Does a 2002 Camry have a timing belt or chain that needs to be replaced?

When I bought my '02 I was told that it no longer has the timing belt/chain that needs to be replaced at around 60,000 miles (my '96 did have a timing belt that needed to be replaced every 60,000 miles). I have put over 80,000 mi. on my '02 and nice to know I won't be getting surprised by timing belt failure. Did have to have the serpentine belt on the engine replaced recently though.

What is the cost to replace water pump on 96 Honda accord v6?

The water pump is driven by the cam belt so the belt is replaced at the same time. The belt and pump must be replaced every 90,000 miles as this is an interference engine. The cost depends on who performs the repair and where you live. Call around for estimates.
