SOLVED -- Auxiliary belt routing on a Ibiza Cupra PD160 sorted that, now it will not start.

My alternator pully decided to fry itself and fall apart.
I've replaced that after a bit of faffing to get the old pully off.
Now I'm unsure of the belt's routing. Does anyone have a diagram for this vehicle?

Replaced the auxiliary belt.
The engine fired for about 1/2 a second then died.
I realised that the air intake to the EGR was not connected correctly and rectified this.
Scanned with VCDS, however it does not appear to show anything useful.
Any ideas?

Immo issue? Fuel pump?

Fuel pump seems to run by the noise it makes when the ignition is turned on. (A sloshing sound, as it fills the accumulator, I presume).
With VCDS it used to be possible to run the tank pump for 10s or so, that feature seems to have been removed or at least I can't find it.

The immobiliser lamp comes on for the instrument check then turns off. I presume it would stay be on if it was immobilised?
