That was the first place I checked, but I don't think this is the belt I need. That one, apparently, is for the alternator only. I need the belt that runs the alternator and the water pump. The owners manual says something about the belt needing to be a 9.0x965 size? Anyone know what that means?

The numbers you provided are width and length in mm. The link you had is not the one you need if your owners manual information is correct. As a quick check, measure the width of your existing belt in mm, and it should at least let you know which one is the correct width.
