Hi mate
The belt that was included with my mp112 kit is
Gates micro-v at
K061045
6PK2652
Size is 13/16" x 105" oc
Which is 20mm x 2666mm oc
6 rib
That should be the correct length IF YOU HAVE STOCK PULLEYS ?
Not sure why your tensioner has bent forward , was that belt to tight .
Did you get the large bracket and stand off spacer tubes with your ecs tensioner ? Check tightness of tensioner mounting bolts .
I would recheck pulley alignment before you put new belt on .
Maybe check tensioner is in the middle of its travel range when you do install it .

Ah , so all your pulleys are non stock .
That belt p/ number is what came in the box from magnuson 6 rib and is 105" in length.
So yeah you need an 8 rib not sure on length now
What pulleys and damper do you have , do you have the smaller under drive crank balancer/ damper ?
I got an 8 rib kit from innovators west , the offset on the alternator pulley was different to my stock one , which when bolted up lost me one rib right there , which seems to be the culprit why I tossed the belt so maybe have a good look at all your pulleys .
Be interested what your tensioner looks like if you can post a pic .
