Does the fan pulley have one, or two grooves? I don't recall. Do you just need something to keep the water pump belt tight?

hi, yes i need something to run the water pump belt around, the fan pulley has 1 grove, so if i remove the fan, i need a idler or tensioner pulley to replace it with.
ive seen some pics, but cant find the part.

60s Ford AC idler pulley would work. You would have to make a bracket, but that shouldn't be a big deal.
