Without service records no way to tell without inspecting
the belt. If it was never done. I would suggest you change the
belt and water pump.I’m not sure what the service interval is on that belt but i agree with college man if for nothing else than piece of mind.
Honda recommends replacement at 10 years of age or 90,000 miles. Replacing the water pump is not part of the Honda schedule. That has become routine with any timing belt driven water pump. Fear is that when timing belt tension is released on the water pump and then reapplied with the new belt/tensioner that it will cause the water pump to leak and very possibly destroy the new timing belt. Also it then becomes double labor to go back in and replace the pump. Anyway I agree with College Man.
