Mend Fiat 1200cc Belt Head Gasket

how do i find the timming belt tensioner on a 1200cc S.reg Fiat punto?

I am doing a head gasket on a Fiat punto, and also putting a new timming belt on it, i cannot find the tensioner. the car is an S. Reg fiat punto 1200cc sx.
there is a number 60 on the door of the car if that helps any. And also need to know torque details for the head bolts,

Hi Mike, the tensioner is opposite the waterpump, you need a special tool that locates in two holes in the tensioner, this is then adjusted to give the correct tension, when this has been acheived the tensioner nut needs to be torqued to 28Nm, The head bolt torque figures are,
1) 20Nm then
2) 30Nm then
3) + 90deg then
4) + 90deg
the sequence is
8, 6, 2, 5, 10,
7, 3, 1, 4, 9,
