I don't have a pic for you, but you shouldn't need one really. Just eyeball from the side, along the pulley grooves.
Just make sure you get a matched set of belts for the A/C, so you don't have one squealing.

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

I think I have it routed correctly but I have two belts for air compressor can I just use one belt being in not using the air just the pulley thx again

it should be the back two grooves on the crank for the A/C belts and they go to the alternator as well.

front groove fan and idler, I think.......one momento...

Yes, if your A/C compressor is just along for the ride, you could use one belt. The reason it uses two is because the compressor uses a lot of power to turn it & it makes a single belt slip and squeal.

And a single belts saves the hassle of trying to find two matched belts.  :yesnod:
