Uncle Phil needs a new belt

[tkswan]

2002 LS V8 About 116k miles.

We need a new serpentine belt. I had it loose before when I replaced the alternator so I know about how the tensioner works. I took a look yesterday and the front driver side of the engine looks very crowded (an understatement for this engine compartment).

Any weird procedures, warnings, cautions or notes I need to be aware of prior to changing the belt?
