    I went to change my alternator, water pump, and power steering belt, and all three bolts to adjust the tensioner broke off. I have been looking for the part number or name for these pieces as I would rather buy new metal connecting blocks and bolts for my belt tensioner pulley, but I have had no luck finding an reference to it.

    It's a '03 2.4L.

    Your engine should read 3RZ-FE or 4RZ or something like that. My guess is to get it from the dealership. They'll ask for the vin number and will give you the exact part.

    Some parts are not manufactured by the thousands like many parts at the local Autoparts store. This seems like something that barely ever breaks so your best bet is the dealership or a junk yard.

    You may need to replace the entire tensioner.
