I recently bought three Goodyear Gatorback belts for our 455.
All are 7/16 and pass the 10mm wrench test (ie, 10mm wrench doesn't fit over them)
The ones I got that worked:
Goodyear Gatorback 15574 - Alternator
Goodyear Gatorback 15621 - Air Conditioner

Both of these were a little on the short side (kinda tough to install),
but I'm guessing will stretch a bit over time. Goodyear 15634 is also
listed for the AC, and is a little longer, but I haven't tried it in
the Gatorback line.

The one I got that did NOT work was Goodyear Gatorback 15466
for the power steering pump. It was much too long.
