But that doesn't come with the crank pully does it? Just the timing belt, a tensioner and a roller I don't need.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and suggest the dealer. If nothing else it will be decent quality, some of the aftermarket ones are a poor (loose) fit and the material seems softer. For $70CDN I think it's worth the money. The part number for the TDI pulley is 028 105 263D.

I found a Meyle. That is a good one isn't it? $21, so much cheaper than a dealer.

Meyle is an aftermarket supplier for the dealer. Their parts are ok. It just depends on where Meyle buys the parts. Sometimes the parts are German, sometimes they're made in Turkey, Yugoslavia or some other crazy country.

Mine has a German holographic sticker and german part # sticker, so I think it is German. Well off to the machine shop so they can mod the crank... :D
