How big a DIY job is it to replace the tensioner pads?

Can it be done with the engine in place or do you need to drop the engine?
My bank 1 values vary greatly from hot to cold. Dead cold, its at about - 6.5, fully hot engine (after running for more than an hour) it comes down to under 5.5. I'm not digging into the motor until it gets substantially worse, and it been about the same in the 25k miles I've had my car.
