Default 1998 V70R Timing Belt

Can anyone refer me to a link with instructions regarding changing the timing belt on this car? I suspect the tensioner is the mechanical type due to COP setup on the engine. I am awaiting a repair manual but think I'd like to tackle this job over the weekend.
Thanks You.

Here you go:

Be careful!!

It's not hard but those timing marks are hard to see.

MAKE SURE YOU TURN IT OVER BY HAND BEFORE CRANKING IT.

I bent two valves trying to start it when I didn't have the timing right. If it's not in time you can tell when turning by hand.
