Bill,
I was told by my volvo indytech that valve clearance tends to tighten up and get less noisy with time, this is bad, better to hear them a little I am told, so you are right. Getting the tools would be good but how much for a kit of shims? I paid the money.
As for tensioner bearing, should be replaced if at all noisy. They say it should be replaced anyway every other belt change. Do it now while you are in there. Also check your front end seals, many here will say replace them anyway, they are cheap.
