V-belt question

I'm trying to replace the v-belt on my 95 A6Q and, of course, the diagram in
the Bentley doesn't look much like what is on my engine.  From what I can
deduce, however, it appears that all I need to do is loosen the tensioner.
Two questions before I loosen everything up though:  

1.	It says to use a 10mm hex (allen?) to loosen the tensioner by
turning it "downward", which is clock-wise.  Is this correct?  Can somebody
verify that this is a 10mm allen bolt before I go out and buy one?

2.	It says to use "drift 3204".  What is this?  It looks like there is
a small hole on the perimeter of the tensioner roller that this would fit
in.  What is this for?  Does it just hold the tensioner in place while
tightening?

TIA for any advice anybody could provide.  This is probably a bad sign that
I have so many questions about such a simple procedure.
