Wouldn't say I'm a pro or expert but had struggles finding a belt as mines needed a 1080
Went to euro car parts.... hopeless.....
Then went to a local place called Galloway industrial I think....
Do machine belts for factories etc
Cost like a tenner and arrived next day..
advice would be don't go to car bit but industrial shop instead
Contact peteg40 or check Pete's dub stuff section on the forum, he sells them amongst other spares

That what you're after? The last one i got was off amazon, but that was a few years back, quarter of the price as well.
Search "1000-8M-20 Timing Belt" on amazon, looks like they still have them.
I just buy a cheap G40 cambelt for my PSD pulleys
The 1000 8m ones mine uses an Optibelt Omega HP 1000 8m, (20mm wide) I did a couple of thousand miles no issues but hasnt been used in 9 years, I' spoke with Optibelt and bought direct £25 posted per.
Optibelt Warrington 01925 415777 iirc
Mine toothies are the Austrian ones people were buying a few years back.
