I am looking for a serpentine belt diagram that allows me to bypass the compressor. I have an idle pulley if I need to swap one out for a grooved pulley just need to know how to route it.

It looks like you may be able to use a shorter belt which will be trial and error at the auto parts store, I would buy 3 belts at a time and take back the belts that don't fit. I have marked the bypass routing so you can see if it will work, make sure the belt does not touch anything, or it will get shredded. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
