LOST: balancer or pulley

[rico12410]

got 'answer' from Damper Doctors, but got confused by the question he asked.

"How many v- belts if more than one how far apart are pulleys 1/2" or 1/4"?"

"Both are OEM check your other pulleys see how far apart they are on what ever one has two grooves"

Hereby I attached some photos of the HB which need replacement..

can somebody help?

From your photos, it appears your belt ran on the inside groove of your old balancer. If that is the case, then either of the two (1/2" or 1/4") balancers you mentioned should work.
The choice comes down to availability and selection of the other pulleys if you decide to add P-Steering and AC. I think I would go with the balancer with close (1/4") grooves and figure out what I needed for any additional accessories. Your alternator isn't original, so at some point, someone fabricated its mount to match the balancer.
