Don't know the Pontiac version but a 95 Buick required removal of motor mount! Otherwise these are a cake walk just retracting self tensioner,

If that's the type just go easy supporting engine and perhaps need an assistant to line up mounts bolts. Quality serp belts last a loooong time so short of something funky you should need be back there soon,
