Noisy air con idler

I had my timing belt changed at the end of July and now the air con idler pulley is making a terrible racket, always something else goes wrong when you fix another. I've oiled the bearing once a week now since August and I think it's about done. I am trying to get a new idler pulley for the air con belt have tried all the usual sites including eBay and have come up empty. Does anyone no where I can get one or does anyone have one I could buy.

I know it's getting colder and air con usually not needed in winter but in London the air is so bad you need the air con to help clean it up and keep the crap out.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and select miscellaneous bottom on the left should be one in there,
