Some info I've found, don't know if it's going to be useful yet though. I found the European Gates cataloge that lists a part number for my application. I'm confused that it's different than the T844 number though; 5306 is PN they list. I'm going to see if my local Gates dealer can get that PN as they haven't had luck with T844.

If anyone wants to check out the cataloge:
1) go to http://www.gates.com/Europe/
2) find the link to 'catalogue' under Automotive products
3) Click on Online automotive application catalogue

Useful info for non-US products.

I'll keep everyone posted how my effert goes buying one here in the US. My last resort is to contact co-workers in UK and have them buy one (some) and send them to me. We'll see...

Thanks again for all the info.
