A bit hard to see on my phone, but is that locking plate on the wrong way?

The belt tensioner is 180 out, they have tensioned it clockwise instead of anti clockwise, it was like a piano string even after all this time, far to tight.
Belts last done by a LR Main Dealer Shocked

Aha... I can see it now. Not done one but guessing the locking plate locks bolt head on rhs and tab should be in cut out, all held solid by other bolt? .
