96,000 miles. 3 hours book time and do the tensioner, auxilliary belt
and be prepared for a leaking water pump which will add another 3/4 of
an hour plus anti-freeze.

I'd think about doing it at 72K Walt,  96K sounds tooooo risky to me... :-)
The garage that does mine, who take this thing rather more seriously than
most, suggested 72K as the correct mileage (For a 2000 90HP).
I don't think there's a mention of the actual mileage in the handbook (?)
but as you I'm now curious to know the official recomended mileage.
They may as well do the water pump at the same time, it's probably going to
go soon anyway.
There's also some kind of pulley under there that needs looking at,
something to do with rubber buffers that wear, Or summat. (Non-technical
