I don't want to risk losing the timing by removing the rear timing cover and cam pulley.

If anyone has done this job and can give me some tips I'd be extremely grateful.
I would be amazed if there is anything wrong with it even if it were 30 years old .. i would leave it as long as it spins smoothly and does not leak ... I have never come across a faulty one in 30 years since that type was introduced , working with them on a daily basis ... .. if you were to change it for a non volvo pump it would be hugely less reliable than leaving it ..
