What is really required parts wise to do a water pump service on a '94-'96 Merc 225?

Reason I ask is on other motors there is a 'kit' but frequently it has way more parts than needed if you're just wanting to 'freshen' the impeller.

What are the specific parts that NEED to be replaced, other than the requisite impeller?

or

Should I really pop for the $75 'kit'?

just the frugal in me asking, don't mind spending it if it's required, but.......
