As already mentioned, a fairly simple task.
Marking the pulleys position makes life a lot simpler, when you remove the belts one of them- the top pulley for me will move as its under tension, it doesnt move far and its a very simple thing to get it back to its marked position using the new belt itself to turn it round.
Likewise, removing the covers was the trickiest thing, - apart from getting the old oil filter off, mine ripped though I got there eventually.
Just take your time and enjoy the work.
