Default Chevy 350 belt tensioner bracket

Im doing a motor swap in my 83 cutlass.
it had a chevy 350 crate motor in it, with ac. i am putting in another chevy 350 and removed the ac and the air pump. being that i have a serpentine system, i need a way to mount my belt tensioner bypassing the other pulleys. is there a bracket for this?

I have seen Gm Serp brackets with a delete pulley bolted in place of the AIR pump and AC compressor. Scoggin Dickey(http://www.sdpc2000.com/) may be able to help with a part number

all i can find are entire serpentine systems. i cant seem to find a single bracket or something like that. i could just put the belt over the ac and air pump, but id rather delete both of them since i am not using them. this is as far as i got, is there a delete bracket here?:

You are half way there. Now CALL Scoggin Dickey and they will be able to look up all the individual servicable parts to convert your existing bracket with a dummy pulley for the AC compressor and an idler puley and bracket for your A.I.R. pump. Also ask them for the correct belt number.
