Just unbolt the bit where the turbo pipe fixes onto and it will swivel down then unbolt the pully and take pully completely off and belt will come off.
I stood on it to get it back on and it's still going strong

you might find the damper has seized I left mine to soak in diesel over night and got some spring back. I don't think you can buy just the damper it's got to be the whole thing

I bought a Land Rover genuine replacement tensioner (they also use the BMW engine) part number STC4168 from DLS on ebay.
