In all my reading on doing this job, this was never suggested unless I was changing the timing chain itself. Regardless, I still drive the car and have not noticed any issues related to this suggestion. Thanks for the comment.
The tensioner does not need to be positioned in a certain way. Just screw it back in; however, make sure it is properly torqued to specs. I list that in the video as well.
Should have rotated the engine to tdc to be sure timing was not off due to bad tensioner.
