Default quicky question: what's that pulley on the 2.1L petrol engine?

Hi, quick question: What is it?

Everything is extremely tight in that area. Thus, I can't properly see it - that picture is from the internet: What is the function of that pulley in the red circle? What is powered via that pulley?

Thanks, Peter

Hi Peter,
Looks to be the power steering pump pulley.

Hi Mark,
yes, thanks, that's it. As I wrote: Everything there is so tight, that I could not see anything. But now that I know what to look for: Yes, the pipes from the power steering reservoir are going to that power steering pump. I just could not remember for the moment what was missing, I knew it's not the water pump, not the A/C compressor, not the alternator and obviously not crankshaft pulley. - I just removed those 3 idle pulleys (apart from the tensioner), because I realized yesterday that one of them was totally stuck (the bearing died) - and two other bearings were also on their way out.
Thanks, Peter
