Hello Customer (name blocked for privacy) and welcome to Just answer.com, Super mechanic here. I recall those belts giving 1.4 hours for both. Yes, the mount has to come off. There is a way of sneaking the belt around the motor mount if you just take out the long spacer at the bottom. The one that has a inverted torx head on it. Jack the engine up and you can work the belt around the mount itself. I was not able to copy the belt diagram but here is a link to it. Let me know if it times out on you and I will send it again, thanks
