You'll be fine with the stock pump being an 02 with that low of mileage.

I would however, replace the timing chain.

You can swap to a ported oil pump if you'd like. It isn't required though. I didn't do it on mine. ported oil pumps are about 150 dollars and they just offer alittle more flow and cooling.
