2nd: that hose u asked about in the earlier pic, that looks like u'r hose for u'r PCV valve. u'll wanna get a new hose to replace the cut one, and check to make sure u atleast still have the PCV valve. w/o it u do run the chance (small chance but still a chance) of blowing up u'r engine. like, no joke, kaboom!

thanks for the help. Only thing is that those pictures aren't of my belt, but of Sparsky's, my belt appears to be in good shape, it was replaced 5,000 miles ago when the engine was put in along with the waterpump. I'm taking the car in tommorow so I'll have results for you guys then. Thanks a lot.
