Change it and keep it as an emergency back up.

We have a winner! Thanks to everyone for your comments. Even though it looks good, it is 12 years old and I have a new one on hand. I'll change it out and throw the old one in the trunk.

Make sure you mark the direction of rotation on the old belt if you ever plan on reusing it.

I can't believe I'm saying this...I am the guy that has changed everything regardless. But that belt looks/is in really good shape...put the new one in the trunk as a back up
