The belts you see are the power steering belt and and the belt for the fan. The timing belt is hidden behind a plastic cover.

That is correct. Also the water pump is in with the timing belt. Here is a write up on how to change the timing belt.

And here are two other threads talking about replacing the timing belt for the 3.4 V6.
