locate your air your airfilter housing there may be a vent in the side or top clean this with a tooth brush as it gets cloged with dirt and oil.had same problem but with earlier model.
I was told to tap
I think someone has misled you. Even if you were able to get it to work by tapping it, you can be sure the problem is going to come back. You need to have that starter tested if you think it is the problem.
Water was found leaking from
Is it leaking FROM the oil pan, or dripping OFF the oil pan?
If its dripping OFF the oil pan, that leads me to beleive you have a coolant leak somewhere. Check the coolant level. Check for leaks.
Check your oil, if the oil is milky/coffee colored. Or if your coolant looks kinda nasty, you may be looking at a headgasket.
Setting timing marks
Mr. RAGSDALE.
I do not know if you did strip the belt yet or not. If you did not,I will advise you a just easy and good way to do it yourself. String for the stripping,you just remove the outside belts and pulleys,remove the plastic covers of the timing belt. Just put on the crankshaft the pulley bolt and slowly slowly turn the engine until you see all the marks aligned. On the Camshafts the two sprockets do have the letters "E" and "I", E= Exhaust and I= Inlet.means that the inner to dashboard side is the inlet cam and to the vehicle front the exhaust cam. These two cams with the letters must be aligned,with the crankshaft sprocket
having on the side a small groove which mus be aligned with a small point ball behind the sprocket on the cylinder block. There are your marks. Loose the tensioner and remove the belt.
Good Luck!
Engine number location
Engine Number
Either on the rear top nearside or on the front nearside of the block. On V6 engines the number can be found on the rear nearside of the block.

Sounds like the belt, you're right on track. Check the belt(s) and replace if neccesary. If belts are fine, check for tightness. Should be about a 1/4" flexibility when you push down on them. If all is ok, belt dressing should take care of the problem.
Now, if for some reason, one of the components that run off the belts may be going bad, specifically a/c compressor. If it's starting to lock up, it will make your belt squeal and finally snap.
