Answer
Gilson is owned by the Toro company.  If anyone could help you it would be someone in their parts department to try and do research.  You could call the 800-number or go online at www.Toro.com and send them an e-mail in your e-mail include everything even a picture might help.  Other than that measure from the crankshaft pulley to the pulley on the blower center to center.  I am sure this tension belt is controlled by and idler pulled allow for that idler pulley in your dimension.  If you have an old belt you could measure it at a hardware store.  I know this is some more information than you want but it may help, good luck.  This will
