I used my pocket knife to pop the seals out. The cam locking tool will help you to make sure the cam gears are in timing when you put the cam gears and timing belt back on. I used a table vice to press the tensioner and a small drill bit to hold it in place when I reinstalled it.
I guess I'll have to take this into consideration. Once I get the backside of the timing belt cover off so I can see behind it and know more about the situation I'll look into this. I'd rather do it now while the motor is apart and not in the car if it needs to be done.
