That should be on the panel above radiator most cars have that unless someone stripped it off see pic for diagram. Tensioner should be replaced as well if replacing belt. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Hello

3.5L Engine - 5.3 Liter is in the diagrams below


https://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/261618_GraphicCAS5A2TH_1.jpg



Install by starting at the generator, route belt around all pulleys except for tensioner. Rotate belt tensioner clockwise in order to release the spring tension. Install drive belt around the tensioner.

This guide can help as well.

If you go to repair and service then diagrams it is right there. However, if you are replacing belt replace tension-er as well as it is worn out too. See picture.
