Your manual should have a listing of things that need to be done as part of the service plan.

That said, you have compiled a pretty good list. I doubt I would replace the cam seal until it gives problems. The timing belt is just that a belt. I would replace it along with the water pump and the tensioner. The plugs, tranny fluid, fuel filter, air filter, & brake check is a list that will do plenty to extend the life of the car. Many of these or several depending upon your capability are easy do it yourself jobs.
