I think I'm running the wrong tensioner pulley? (1GR-FE)

I didn't want to replace my entire tensioner assembly but since the pulley was crunchy I replaced just the pulley. However the belt rides on the inside of the pulley so I feel like it's wrong. Anyone have a photo or part # of just the tensioner pulley?

I feel like an idiot for being ready to drop $60k on a 40 year old car

Yes it's an air cooled Porsche 911. Yes I've always wanted one. No I don't want a newer car. No it's not my only car. Yes I already have a Toyota to keep me sane.

What is an old car you would spend too much money on? Need some hand holding here to validate my decision so I'm not feeling like I'm losing my damn mind.

I'm compiling an automotive bucket list. What would you add to this list?

I'm a lifelong car nerd so I've made a list of the greatest automotive events/drives/museums to experience before kicking the bucket. This doesn't include ownership of any cars as that's a sky's-the-limit financial slippery slope but I may ponder on that later.

Here's the list (pasted below):

Is this etiolation?

I'm a plant idiot and this is my only plant since I tend to forget about them. What's going on here?

What is a car you'd proudly drive around with patina/failed paint because it can pull it off well?

I browse FB marketplace and the online auction sites daily out of habit and started to think about what project cars I probably just wouldn't repaint.

I think air cooled 911s and VW bugs and buses are a given. Is there anything newer than that that can pull it off?
