Anyone know how difficult the oil pan R/R is on a '99 XC? got a pretty good leak that has been annoying me for a couple of years now. Already changed the turbo oil return O ring, but looks like it's...

OK, looks like the timing belt tensioner let go (well lost a few balls anyways), the belt kept tension, but it slipped 3 teeth. So I bought the kit, installed it & crossed my fingers and toes, hit...
