the frist one is right if you just went over tenisoner over water then you would skip the alt.

no goes under tensioner over alt then makes a diagonal line to the water pump. it then goes over the water pump and makes like a backwards s under the crank

Yeah that sounds right..your bypassing the smog pump right. after it goes over the crank it should run to p/s pump and a/c if you have it
