Re: What tensioner?
Doesn't really matter, the bearing is the same. What it probably started with is a manual with a sinusoidal belt (the rounded teeth), but some engines that started with square teeth and a manual tension have been upgraded to that anyway.
Simple enough, just look to roughly near the alternator bracket on the front of the engine.
