Hi,
Jaguar part # for this is NCA2211AC, although you will pay handsomely at the dealership. There are some alternatives discussed in this thread of graham11's:

Do check the idler and tensioner pulleys for grumbly bearings while you have the belt off. They do seem to have a somewhat shorter lifespan than the serpentine...

My last belt I installed a few months ago I bought at Autozone. Around $39.00. If you find one of the idler or tensioner pulleys need replacement they have them also. The idler puller is what they carry. The idler pulley is the same as the tensioner pully but the dealer will only sell it as a tensioner assembly. The idler and tensioner pulley are held on by a single bolt. The difference is the tensioner pulley bolt is a left hand threaded bolt.
