98 NA V70 V70-XC70 1998

Nearing 140k, so need to get ready for a timing belt change. The engine S.N. letters are worn off the timing cover sticker. Should I assume the car has the hydraulic tensioner, since we purchased it new in June of 1997? I plan to do this myself. I've changed timing chains and one belt, though none for a Volvo. My understanding is that the hydraulic tensioner and water pump may be good a another 70k unless leakage is seen, but the timing pulleys should be changed for sure? Anyone used aftermarket parts with success?

thanks,
kcarl
