Default Timing belt...

Hello to All..I just inherited a 01 Passat 4cyl turbo from a family member.The car has a broken timing belt and/or water pump.What I need to know is;Are there are any special tools needed to do this job and just how difficult is it to do? I am a former ASE mechanic(been out of doing repairs professionally for about 10 years),but have never worked on a Passat before.I know this is a close tolerance engine and I know what I could be in for.I want to get a new belt on it so I can do a leak-down and hope for the best.Any help with a proceedure or tips would be appreciated.I used the search feature here but not to sure how this forum works.Its a little different from the one I'm a member of for a different make of vehicle............Thanks,Bryce
