Spring I should have an answer on Wednesday for replacement.

Hi Paul.
You need to determine the width of the top of the Vee on the crankshaft pulley. If approx. 16mm, then try a B section belt, but if 22mm then use a C section belt. The supplier should be familiar with B and C section belts as it is an International designation. As for length, you will need to open up your pump pulley and when belt is fitted the sheaves are adjusted up and engine turned over a few times, then recheck adjustment. When the belt reached the top of the vee on pump pulley it is near end of adjustment.
From what I have read here you fitted the belt without opening the adjustable pulley, is that is correct?
A Morris C8 owner might know the replacement belt number.
