98 3.0 cl timing belt question

I'm having a friend change my timing belt. He's a seasoned mechanic, but does not typically work on Acuras. He mentioned to me today that he thinks there is a special tool needed - something to do with the tensioner.

My question is, is there a special tool to hold the tensioner in place. If so, does anybody know the best place to get one, and what its official name/part number is? Is there a way you can proceed with the repair without the tool or is it absolutely necessary?

Thanks in advance.
