Need Some Pics of 440's & Pulley Info

I am about finished with the 440 for the 69.  I need some pics of how the alternator, power steering, and AC brackets mount on the engine since mine was deprived of them all when I got it.  I figured out how the 1 set of alternator brackets mounts, is it correct that it's via the water pump bolts, or are there studs that should go there in place of a regular bolt?

Edit:  Nevermind about the alternator bracket, the one I have is the wrong one, the way it sits on the engine, the hood won't close so I am guessing it's off another car or truck possibly.

I think I'm going to need some info on the pulleys as well.  I need to know how many grooves the crank, water pump, and alternator pulleys are supposed to have.  Engine is 69 440 with AC, Power Steering.  Right now I have a 4 groove crank pulley and a single groove water pump pulley, single groove PS pump, 2 groove alternator, and single Groove AC compressor.

That all sounds correct except I think there should be a 2 groove AC comp. to run along with the 2 groove alt and crank.  The water pump runs a single groove with a tenisionser/idler pulley and the PS pump runs by itself off of the 4th groove of the crank.

I was looking at some pics on the 1969 Charger Registry site and saw the 2 groove compressor setup, so now I know that is incorrect.  I saw a pic of 1 of the alternator brackets in the Factoy Service Manual, still need to know what the other one looks like.  Is there a pic of the idler pulley anywhere so I can see what it looks like or a part number?  I have one but not sure what the application of it is.

Check with Manciniracing.com. I believe they have a set up that is the stock style. Not the polished aluminum stuff. He might be a lot of help. Year one is alittle pricey but might be a huge help also. I know their catalog has many color pictures that show engine bays with that set up. The pic down below is my car after the first rebuild in two seasons. Don't ask. I took off the A/C set up but the alt set up is the same. It might help.
