Looks like the pre-tensioner to me. I dont know about those older 1uz-fe, but on my GS400, you can use a socket and just turn that bolt counter-clockwise, and the whole tensioner should move to the point where you can just take out the belt. Worth a try though?

Yup no need to remove the bolt. Just turn it counter-clockwise for the 1uz. The following links may help you:
