1983 Dodge B250 318 Belt Routing
So I've searched everywhere and I can't for the life of me find the Belt Routing for a 1983 Dodge B250. The van I have is a conversion van, converted to a camper, and has a 318 in it. I'm having some charging issues, and wanted to get my belts sorted out before I went onto other possible problems, as I seem to be missing a belt.
The pulleys on my engine are:
Crankshaft (triple pulley)
Water/Fan (triple pulley)
PS Pump
Idler
A/C Compressor (double pulley)
Alternator (double pulley)
I went to NAPA to buy belts, and for my application, they said I need two identical belts that go around my crank/fan/A/C/alternator, and one belt for my crank/fan/PS Pump.
The Crank/Fan/PS Pump belt seems to be the right size, but the other one for the A/C and Alternator seems to be quite off.
Currently my belts are setup as follows:
1 Belt around Crank/Fan/PS Pump
1 Belt around Crank/Fan/A/C/Idler
1 Belt around A/C Alternator
which leaves a set of pulleys left open on the alternator/crank/fan. I can't find any diagrams, I even went to the local Dodge Dealer and they were no help. Can anyone provide any help? Thanks,

does this look familiar to your set up https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=...06837730918435
If you go to the below thread there are pictures halfway down. That is how my belts look, except for no air pump and I have a double pulley on the Alt, and an open set of pulleys on the crank/fan.
