easiest way is get a water pump from an escort poverty spec with no PAS (pump spins the other way),fit whatever alternator you choose and measure up
for the drive belt as that will depend on the alternator you use
who cares who wins
pass the pork pies

if you measure round your pulleys, in millimeters, your local motor factor should be able to order you in any length belt. mine did 
they come in lengths of 5mm steps, ie 185mm, next size up is 190mm, 195mm etc

They surely do. Go onto the Contitech website and you can even cross reference in one of their PDFs which road cars use which belts as standard.
If you're looking at multi-ribbed belts the coding is
xKy
where x is the number of ribs and Y is the diameter
e.g. 4K890
It should be simple then to just order that OEM belt from a local factor.
