It's whipping away on the inside on the timing cover.
Is there a manual adjuster? Or is it stretch?
Many thanks before I pull the cover off.

For anyone ever wondering, you spend an hour trying to undo five screws and a 10mm bolt, four 10mm on the water pump pulley, you find the top screws come out easy and the bottom two refuse. Use an old fence post to snap the bottom of the cover off, slacken a 13mm on the clock sprung tensioner pulley and he springs into life, rock car in gear until belt goes tight, do up the 13mm on the tensioner pulley, use piece of old pallet wedged against the inner wing and the timing cover to pop it back over the now C shaped holes, put the three screws you managed to get out back in, if you drop one in the timing cover, don't worry it can't do any harm in there, if it does you can buy a N14 Sunny and chop the whole engine, gearbox and struts across. Alternator belt, bracket back on. Start engine and rev hard to check the belt won't snap. Job done.
