You have a V6, right? Looks like only coolant recovery reservoir has to be removed. Then you rotate the drive belt tensioner clockwise with box end wrench

Yes the 98' malibu is a V6-3.1. It looks like there is a motor mount sitting next to the drivebelt that would hinder it from coming directly off.
