cosworth cam belt problem
put new belt and tensioner on tday but noticed belt not strait goin from left cam to tensioner afraid to start it lol is this normal or is sumut missin from behind the tensioner 

yes think so bigger nut to turn then the lok nut i ad the cam pulleys off to change seals but they seem to be rite if u look from the top the belt goes in towards the engine from the bottom of left pulley into the tensioner
Loosen the tensioner and rotate the opposite way, this will have the effect of raising the belt run between the cam pulley and the tensioner, which should be parrallel with the belt run between cam pullies, some say if not it can run on the stat housing, think from memory you turn the tensioner counter clockwise to raise belt run up.
Would still be perfectly ok as yours is though, I've yet to see a run like that causing problems.
