85 300ci - 3 serp belts?
Greetings folks. Looks like my 85 i6 has had an a/c bypass job on it and now it looks like it has 3 different belts on it. Is anyone familiar with this setup? If anyone could help discern which size I would greatly appreciate it. I don't know how to post photos, but I'll learn if need be. Thanks.

I cannot get to my truck right now or I would get the numbers of the belts currently being used [Goodyear Gatorbacks]. My truck is a 1986 with 4.9L engine. My son has a 1984 with the same engine and the belts are the same.
Originally, the engine would have 4 belts: 1 for the P/S pump; 1 for the A/C and 1 for the alternator, which is on the passenger side. The alternator has a 2-groove pulley. The 2nd groove was for a very short belt which drove the air pump [above the alternator].
