[Vwdiesel] [Audi-VW-Diesels] Looking for Canadian 1.9 Parts

[82 Diesel Westy]

I have what appears to be a similar situation on the
Eco Diesel I have been tinkering with.  The timing
belt seemed to walk out towards the crank pulley and
chewed into the back of the pulley and eventually may
have had something to do with the belt shreading
itself.  The belt looked like it was cut longways
until it finally broke.  Did lots of valve damage, 7
of 8.
Did a 1.6TD motor ever have one of these?

Thanks, bryan
