I remember doing my F4R belt while the engine was out using the workshop manual, the amount of times I rotated the engine, rechecked the horseshoe and found it was slightly off... I did update the cambelt pulley from floating to the keyway'd one from the Megane however. Fiddley engines indeed.

you should really use a locking tool on the in/ex sprockets and with all 3 sprckets loose and the crank/cams locked rotate the belt to insure the belt tension is correct. also the aux belt and tensioner should be replaced at same time because if that fails it is just as likely to snap the cam belt if it breaks

Only 16mins to do all that, you missed out one of the most important parts, the bottom pulley bolt, it reminds me of the Haynes manuals, 3 spanners, undo this, remove that, reassembly is the reverse process, ignoring the three hours trying to undo one rusted bolt which snaps, a trip to the motor factors, some more tools to remove snapped bolt, a bigger hammer, the crank pulley bolt is a bugger to do by yourself.
