1. If it's not in a bad state of corrosion, it shouldn't be hard to get the bearing out. The worst is bending your fingers around corners to get access.
2. The chain tensioners(Teflon pads)should sit straight. Rotate the metal part of the tensioner, then the pads can be popped off, they are a spimple press fit on the rotating shaft. Not expensive.
