how do i get this belt back on

i don't have the belt size/part number, but i can give you some basic directions as to how to put it on:
1. standing over the driver side headlight and looking down onto the alternater, you should see a pretty long bolt that looks like it has another bolt going right into it at a 90 degree angle

2. loosen the shorter bolt that is at the 90 degree angle, this will allow you to loosen the longer bolt

3. loosen the longer bolt until you can pull it up out of the slot it is sitting in

4. at this point you can go ahead and put on your new belt, moving the alternater as needed

5. once the belt is on, go ahead and replace the longer bolt into the slot, tighten it down to adjust the tension on the belt

6. now tighten the shorter bolt (the one at the 90 degree angle) to lock that longer bolt in place

hope this helps, it should be fairly easy since it sits on the outside part of the crank pulley (unlike your a/c belt)
