If the timing belt aint broke-I say fix it anyway! Preventative maintenence is good-or just bring a roll of duct tape... Or get the chain upgrade that I got.

Taking the head off is to inspect for for other damage like valves and piston interference. It should only be a little more money, if there is no more damage.
You might want a second opinion anyway.
