Just did this install, two tricks I learned that might be useful:

1) if the crank pulley moves (which mine did) just put a torx bit in the tensioner with a ratchet on it, then wedge it with a pipe on the end towards the intake to hold the belt loose (made it easy to work on after that)

2) if you take your cell phone in video mode with the flashlight on you can see easily what’s going on inside the crank pulley in terms of alignment

Overall this install was much easier than I was expecting
