Default Re: oil leak behind the accessory belt & pulleys

If you didn't touch the adjuster with the allen key, the way you have described it is fine.
When you took the plug and retainer out, the tensioner would have been fully extended anyway, so if it wasn't touched, it is all good - as long as the tang on the piston was aligned correctly.
If you have driven it around and/or if the tensioner/piston wasn't touched, there is no reason why the alignment would be off.
