Read your other thread.  Don't have a diagram I'm afraid, but if the alt and w/p are driven by the serpentine belt you don't have a/c.  Serp drives only alt and w/p.  IIRC, the w/p pulley has no grooves however the ribbed side of the belt rides on the pulley.  Spin all pullies by hand to make sure none are seized!

Serp belts can be tricky...often seem too short at first.  I usually put the belt around all pullies except the alternator.  Keep some tension on belt with one hand and swing tensioner with the other.  Then wrap belt around alt pulley and release tensioner.
