I was replacing the drive belt on the 96 GTS and the tensioner pulley bolt snapped. Does anyone have a part number or source for a new bolt?

If I have to buy the entire tensioner assembly, how do you remove the old tensioner. This may seem pretty basic, but the service manual provides no guidance.

Here is a good picture for reference

Thank you

If anyone wants to know for future reference, the tensioner is held to the bracket with a 15mm nut on the backside of the bracket. The engineer who was in charge of this must have decided to take their bad day out on future owners.
Not easy to replace, have fun.
