Sure I've seen the full set of tools advertised for a bit under the ton somewhere.

most likely www.difflock.com
click here and look under Difflock tools and servicing (or the 'engine service and repair section)

You should find the complete kit to change your cambelt - also allows you to change crank/cam seals. - £99.99 inc vat (plus postage)
(Excellent piece of kit!!!)

Depending on the spec of the engine, you should have a two piece damper and pulley drive (i.e. the bit that drives the belts for the alternator and water pump, pas etc should be bolted to the main damper).
You can confirm whether you've got the two piece set up by putting your fingers inside the recess on the damper pulley drive and feeling for one large bolt and four smaller ones - it is the four bolts that you are feeling for, as this signifies the two piece set up (hope this make sense :? )

If you have got the two piece setup, then also consider buying the cranshaft locking tool - also from difflock - which I think is about £42 (ish)... this makes life a lot easier!!!


Then all you need to buy is....

1x new cambelt
1x new pulley/tensioner unit
1x front cover gasket
1x water pump gasket
Some anitfreeze to top up when water pump is refitted
1x thread lock to put on damper bolt when refitted

I would also consider changing the front cover seal, the crank seal (same part number as the front cover seal)and the cam seal - as they do have a habit of leaking.
