Default Serpentine Belt

I have a 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan with a 3.0 engine. where can I find a double sided serpentine belt, as all the pully's and tensoners have grooves on them. I replaced the older one with a one sided belt and now there is grooves worn into the top and now it looks like it's about to fail(6months old). I have checked all the parts stores near me ( A.Z., A.A., A.V.) they all say "they have never heard of, nor seen anything like that". thanks for any help you can give me.
BTW the odometer just rolled to 225,000 plus miles.

Never heard of either. the smooth side of the belt is for the water pump and tensioner. They should be smooth. Someone install the wrong pulley? Just a thought.
