Your cam belt looks awfully close to the thermostat housing, that generally happens when you go the wrong way with the cambelt tensioner, the tensioner should only ever be turned clockwise (from loose) to tension the belt. Also the auxiliary pulley, the pointer needs to point to the centre of the half moon on the auxilary shaft cover (it looks like it is to the left edge of the half moon from your pictures).

Can't clearly see the crank pulley but it looks in the right sort of area, the pointer needs to be bang on the left edge of the lug.

But it indeed looks like the tensioner pully is rotated the wrong way to tension the belt.
