To confirm cam and crank correct sequensing an oscilloscope is used to vew cam and crank corilation. Also your compressions do not indicate incorrect valve timing. A vaccume guage should show around 22 hg at idle confirming correct valve timing.

the volvo standard time is 1 hour to replace the cambelt as per manual, the 3 bolts on the cam pulleys are not loosened on belt replacement so the cam locking tools are not required,they are only required if the head/cams have been removed.
