Hey I own a Buick Riviera obviously lol it's a 1997 3800 Sc . It has 72,000 miles original and I've been replacing part by part but I can not find or distinguish a belt for my supercharger from my serpentine when searching. I NEED A BELT FOR MY SUPERCHARGER help please.

The problem is I don't know the exact size and length to verify. They all say serpentine for the most part. I want the best one I heard it's continental brand

There is no best one, they are all the same size.  The Continental is listed,

Any of the belts labelled "Supercharger" will fit and function.  The bigger problem is putting it on.
