Default 99 Accord lx timing belt change

Hello everyone,

One thing that I have chosen not to do as I have heard people
really messing this up is the timing belt. On my mother's car while
she didn't have the mileage (currently 46k), the years were there so I
had to get the timing belt changed. Now that I got the car back, I
noticed that antifreeze is leaking close to the lower hose. I'm going
to jack the car up tomorrow and see if it is cracked or the clamp
isn't secure as it's raining today.
I took a look at the Haynes manual to see if the radiator is
required to be removed for the timing belt (I recall that in older
models this to be the case) but can't seem to find it for this model
year. Does anyone think that they could have screwed this up at the
dealer?

Thanks,
Nick
