does anyone know the genine part number for the 1982 vanagon deisel for the belt?

I have my van ready to put on the road,vacumm pump rebuilt thanks to all the help I have received from this forum. Now, the auxillary heater is disconnected. The 2 fuel pumps don't work. Is this my heat for the van?When I turn on the heat,there is none,just cool air. Not knowing much about this vehi...
