1996 Mercedes E300D serpentine belt. Do I need to use Contitech?

I just replaced the belt and tensioner.
I bought them from some regular old parts store.
The new belt doesn't have deep V grooves, they are more like shallow w grooves.

I sprayed a squirt of water to confirm it was belt, not tensioner.
It is belt.
I sprayed belt dressing on it. Stopped for a few minutes then just became a constant squeal.



Do I need to buy the continental belt?
Or does it matter?
