Newly discovered info on Timing Belt Change V70-XC70 2000

2000 V70 SE, B5244S/Denso management, AW5

Well, newly discovered for me anyway: No CVVT hub on the exhaust cam, only the intake cam. The car was a Special Delivery, Tourist and Diplomat sales, so could it be a different version of B5244S engine in the Special Delivery 2000 V70 SE?

The timing belt change went OK, all is lined up and the car runs well. Even better with new Volvo triple electrode plugs.

Probably the most difficult issues for this job were:

1) busting loose the very tight 30mm crank pulley nut. No impact wrench, used crank holder tool, and

2) unexpected difficulty with new serp belt tensioner, which uses Torx 60 instead of 14mm bolt head to release tension. Is there a tool made for the Torx design? A Torx 60 socket w/ratchet doesn't fit in the tight space and I had to improvise.
