I have a serpentine pulley on the alternator but the rest of the pulleys are single, v pulleys. Whomever did the work on this vehicle never changed out alternators never switched pulleys I guess, how big should the single v pulley be?

I have a 305 in the vehicle and I have to replace the belt because the last person who worked on the vehicle put on a v-belt on a serpentine pulley. There are no serpentine belts on the vehicle
