Talk nicely to Bob, he may have one you can use as a pattern.
Use care when making it to be sure you don't make the plane of the alternator pulley very far off the plane of the water pump and crankshaft pulleys. At best a mismatch will make the belts noisy and wear out faster. Worse, the motor might end up throwing a belt at an inconvenient time (is there a convenient time to throw a belt).
