front 850 camshaft seals 850

I need to replace the oil seal on my 850 non-turbo, which has almost 300K on it. After removing timing belt, can I just mark and unbolt camshaft sprocket, replace seal, and reinstall sprocket in same position? Haynes manual indicates a complex procedure to lock both camshafts at the rear end, which looks like a PITA. I have the ipd camshaft locking tool and have successfully changed the timing belt (once) - is this seal change too difficult to screw around with?

thx
mark
