Nothing! There is always a slight difference.

Have a read of this to check your procedure . After you have fitted the large front belt , when fitting the small rear belts it is usually necessary to rotate the exhaust camshaft a little . Is this what you are experiencing ?

I notice in the link you put up, it said ‘drain the oil’?

Frank; I and others have found this. Having renewed the front belt, remove the flywheel/drive plate locking pin and rotate the engine very slightly until the rear sprocket notches align. Now you will be able to fit the rear tools. That's because the oil cooler pipes need to be disconnected. Simon
