Checking out my a/c system (finding all of the bits and pieces, compressor, lines, hoses & belts), and when I opened the hatch to get a closer look at the compressor, this is what I saw:

Crawled around underneath and couldn't see any other damage to it, no cracks, doesn't look dry. Only this spot.

What's happened here? And how big a job is this to replace? And what specific belt do I get? I have seen some threads talking about newer stock replacement belts (same part # or listed as "replacement for") being the wrong size (10 vs 11 mm ) sitting too low (in the pulley I am assuming). Looks like that could have been the case here? Looks like the "lip" of those sections have been popped off like a bottle cap.

I don't know if this was like this before my Victoria trip this month, since it seems to be just the one spot, could have been like that last summer and I just never saw it because it wasn't in the right spot to view.

Thoughts?
