How many timing belts does a car have?
I believe you have two timing belts, one for each head, but even if they have figured out how to use a single belt on a horizontally opposed engine, there are still two (or 4) cams to time and it only takes one to be off a notch to cause a rough idle.
This is easy to do as the engine tends to shift and rotate and it can be difficult to get it back in the exact orientation so that the engine mount goes back on like it was before it was removed. If it isn’t on correctly, there could be a gap which allows the engine to vibrate more than before. edit: oh, I should add a third possibility.
