Hi, new to owning a Subaru. The belt under the front cover had split into two, still on the pulleys but needs replacing. Pretty sure it’s timing belt. Anyone know if this is an easy job? Cheers

If it has teeth and wraps around all 4 cam pulleys and crank yes it the timing belt

 

and f  it is the timing belt ?  don't even start it let alone drive it , as if it slips more than 3 teeth or snaps it's bye bye engine , hello £3k+ bill 😞

 

Timing belt replacement is not a novice job but can be done at home with cam locks and a decent toolkit . 

Not wanting to sound rude but if you don't know what the belt looks like you should probably let someone else do it bud .

Generally to supply and fit a full cambelt kit your looking at £500 to £700

Cam belt is covered so hes probally been refering to the alternator/power steerign belts.
