1992 RS 3.1l Serpintine installation

My 3.1l recently threw the belt off in the night and the previous owner had removed the smog assembly i believe so i was wondering what size belt i would need to fit w/o the smog pump and if anyone had a diagram available? as i have the Haynes manual and the only thing it says is refer to diagram on vehicle.

With no pump and with A/C, this is the belt:

K060915, that is a Gates Micro-V belt number.

It is a good idea to get an idler in place of the smog pump. As when running the A/C the belt will flop around a lot. This thread has info on that along with pictures of the routing. The belt routing is the same with or without the idler.
