Looking at it again, it does look like it's gone.

From what I see, nothing is missing. In the picture, to the right of the middle, lift the idler pulley, route the belt, release the idler pulley down (it has a heavy spring behind it) an that adds tension to keep the belt onto all the pulleys. You should have a diagram in front of the radiator of how it is to be ran.

Someone who shall remain nameless had a good idea, a couple of guys here got some made and sold them to people who wanted them, $5 extra to Canada.

Find him the pulley, that is what is broken apart, cheaper than the whole assembly. The tensioner on my NA had a cylinder on it as well. Never did look into its reason.
Re: serpentine belt replacement
The pulley is out there, it is mentioned on this forum.
Re: serpentine belt replacement
Thanks everyone for the awesome replies, So if I get just the pulley how easy to replace or if I get the whole assembly what will it cost. Looking at Rock Auto for the belt tensioner pulley and all shows a grooved one not the smooth one as shown in the posts here
