Default Meziere Electric Water Pump need new belt to bypass pulley

I am going to install a Meziere Electric Water Pump and I want to bypass the free floating idler pulley that is used by the pump to allow you to reuse your stock belt.
Where do I get a belt that is shorter or right size that bypasses water pump and still fits?

I don't think so.

If you bypassed the EWP pulley/idler, the belt would have to run straight from the alternator to the tensioner, virtually horizontal.
In the way of that path is the PS reservoir, and the throttle body. The PS reservoir is easily relocated, but the throttle body not as easy.

I did not know if it was possible, but if it was: someone on this forum would know how/where/when/who.
I had to check.
