Where can I find a serpentine belt tool?

I'm looking for the belt tool that has the 3/8 drive at a 45 degree angle. I've heard it exists but I can't find it. The normal long tools are too long and the firewall interferes.

Just changed my serpentine belt yesterday. My magic tools? A 2"x4" and a 1"x4" I had in the garage. The 1x4 fit up under the tensioner. Cut it to length (about 2'). Used the 2x4 to make a lever under the car. I lined it up, my kid pushed down on the lever and voila! Belt tensioner released and pulled the belt off and replaced it in under 5 minutes. Of course I had to take the damn tire off and remove the plastic shield first.

Scrap wood in the garage has infinite usage, I've found. :)

Once he's done he can always sell it back on eBay.
