Correct Belt for Fan/Alternator

So I'm looking at the belt for the Fan/Alternator and it shows two sizes, although they are quite close.

GATES Part # 9395 HC50 15/32" x 39 7/8"}
W/39 3/4" Belt Outside Circumference; Fan and Alternator

or

GATES Part # 9405 HC50 15/32" x 40 7/8"}
W/40 3/4" Belt Outside Circumference; Fan and Alternator

This is for an '83 240D. If I had the vehicle here, I would check, but my wife is driving it around. Anyone with some insight? Its only 1" but I'd appreciate it.

Gotta love answering my own question. Just in case anyone in the future is wondering. The longer belt is for a manual transmission. I'm comparing this to the sizes of the contitech belts, which were better labeled.

I for one was wondering what the difference was. Still what is different on the automatic versus standard I wonder. Sounds like perhaps a different pulley size on one versus the other.
