Answer
Have never seen a vehicle where it was required to remove an engine mount to change a serpentine belt. there is normally a diagram of the belt routing right on top of the radiator shroud. put the belt in place as much as possible, then pivot the tensioner out of the way. not too tough, especially after you do it the first time.
