is this 5speed stick or auto? trans, A/T?
that is why I say in my pages,
Warning, new kick your home check this bolt first, and the key.
we have like 100s failed here for 10 years, on other forums vastly more.
in many cases , it can be even more hard.
some glue the whole cog on , with structural epoxy (not just the key is is best there with damage)
also if the bolt did does not come off easy (means 100 to 150 foot/lbs or CCW force) the 17mm threads may be loctite'd with the kind that only releases at 300f temp. must be heated first., if not you may take out the threads with the bolt and for sure with any (badboy)impact gun (park the gun)
what you find there is any ones guess, and can be worse if jury rigged.
see my locking pages.

here are all ways to lock this engine up to attain magic 94ft/lbs spec. (seen for all automatic boxes)
best is 1st time belt change, ever, by you, remove the bolt and look make sure no damage there now or hidden , so you know what to do , now and 60k miles later.
btw 50 lbs is not tight, (only the old books said that, the TSB in 1996 is 94 and applies to all G16 made 89-98.
the future belts, leave the cog bolt alone, after all you already fixed it or was fixed by others correctly or is still perfect.
this is the G16b tender spot.
now we know why the starter motor doesn't go nuts overloaded at 30 degrees advanced, (answer, it's not ) that is why I ask this, first...
