Mark,
No you don't, if it's the belt on the new engine you're fitting, so long as the marks are lined up it's fairly easy to fit the belt, the exhaust cam on the offside will need to be held quite well, as they always want to move, i always turn the engine over slowly by hand (socket and long bar!) to check all the markers after a few revolutions..... takes me about 2 hrs to do one from scratch... in the car! out on a stand/floor should be a lot easier...
