I have the same INA pulley on my SDL, put an end to the belt flutter right now.

The spring and shock should be replaced together as a pair. When the shock goes, the spring can fail sometime later on from stress. The spring keeps tension on the belt, the shock dampens the oscillation. When the shock fails, you get the rapid fluttering and rough rattle that you show in your video.
