Try to make sure the belt fits the pulley properly. The difference between metric and imperial belt sizes is REALLY small. The worst is MXL, which are .080", and the 2mm counterpart, which is only slightly smaller. But, if you wrap the wrong belt around a larger pulley, the mismatch eventually accumulates so the teeth won't line up all the way around. That could account for the belt being just a bit short. I've run into this.
Otherwise, you will probably have to count all the teeth. Oh, as for where to get them, cheapest is probably McMaster-Carr, Grainger's also has a supply. They don't have the widest selection, so then there are a bunch of specialty suppliers in the power transmission business that may have tens of thousands of sizes in stock.
