Purplefade is on a distinguished road
Apologies, but if it hasn't been said already and it hasn't already been done, it's inexpensive enough to replace the tensioner and idler pulleys while you're in there also. And yes as Entropy mentioned, the crank pulley has to come off and it is torx bolts - I would suggest soaking them in liquid wrench and letting them sit for a bit before wrenching on them, they're easy enough to get to with the fan out but man I'd hate to break one if you had one stick... and be sure to line up the little guide "pin" when you're putting the crank pulley back or it won't sit flush and will give you fits
