Almost all subaru's are the same when it comes to the ej20 engine so cambelts and servicing should not be anymore

If looked after, yes.

Not really, as the access to the cambelt area is very good and easy to get to. However, they do have a hydraulic tensioner, idlers and water pump that need replacing at the same time. The only expensive job would be head gaskets, rocker cover gaskets and spark plugs due to the labour involved (compared to other 4 cylinder engines).
