it is belt driven,bit of a bitch to do because of the position of the nuts,need midget finger`s to do it,lol.i got a brand new one for 30 quid from cost cutters.watch for leak`s around the bottom of the pump,there is a tiny hole on the pump which you can see from underneath the car when you look up.when the bearings go it leaks out of here

should run off your cam/timing belt.....unless the corsa diesel engine is different
should be bout 3bolts holding it in place also....either 10mm or 13mm ....
if you need to replace it...you mite aswell fit a new cam belt aswell
