The serial number is cast onto the block, you found that little devil!
The new belt is short? Bummer. I wonder who made it, it sounds like an old 850 belt.
Yes, the cam marks are different for 1998. Just don't twirl them with the belt off :)
I am not sure about the torx size. If a T40 is too small, it is most likely a T45. Keep your receipt in case it is the wrong size.

Remember to remove the spark plugs after the new belt is on and turn the engine over by hand 720 degrees to make sure everything is in a good position. When you restart your engine, let it run for a minute or two before shutting down, there have been too many people who start and shut down before the oil pressure is up and then the valves lift too high and the engine wont start again.
