Hi Hanno,
Belt makers often had their own set of numbers which did not mean much unless you had their catalogue. Take a look at this link for a B52;
http://www.vbeltsupply.com/ecommerce...ssic-belt.html
It states the belt is 55 inches around outside. Worth you taking a belt off and measuring. The belt may have stretched a little, but main reason for running out of adjustment is the flanks wearing allowing the belt to drop down in to the pulley vee.
