Look at these and see if any make sense to you... it looks to me like the left column is for Corvettes, and the right is Camaro/Firebird. These are for TPI, LT1, and LS1 engines, so read the labels and see what they are and what matches what you have.
The 2nd one down on the right side is probably the one you need.

Well, the belt is not the issue for the no-start. The belt is for the smog pump and only goes to the smog pump and water pump. Go somewhere else if ORielly's is messing you up and keeps giving you the wrong one. Sounds like that particular store doesn't have it all together. Do you have fuel injection or carberater? This might help us help you with the no-start issue.

Nah, he's got the v-belt setup. Those are all serpentine belt routes.
The little skinny v-belt that goes from the WP pulley to the air pump won't cause any harm (except emissions) and won't prevent the engine from starting or running as usual.

Check for spark and check fuel pressure and let us know which you have or don't have. If you have both, use starting fluid to see if the car would start up and stall. This will lead us to where your issue is at.
