I drew out the belt diagram you posted above, and figured out a path that would turn everything the correct way while skipping the unnecessary stuff, then measured it with a piece of string and told the parts store the length of the belt I wanted in mm.
I too have done this to several other cars. Much easier to reroute and less drag on the pully system.

Good luck weather!
