I completely agree that its worth doing the cam belt etc. However, as tehy rocker cover has to come off I was thinking of cleaning the swirl assembly and ports whilst its all removed. I guess being prudent and heading potential stuff off at the pass

What are these special tools required? Are they a necessity?
Depends on your skills, it took me 10 hours easy going
I must stress when in doubt if you can do it, let a good garage do it
And otherwise use a good workflow/description and a torque figure list voor all the important bolts of the camshaft.
And yes replace the cambelt/tensioner if its at least halfway and fill the inlet plenum with a good solvent to clean if its removed
