Default Broken idler pulley anyone??

I have a ls6 with a magnuson supercharger on top. I was having problems with the tensioner flexing and chunking the belt. After 21stCMC put the update on the tensioner bolting it to the head, I quit having that problem. I was cruising around the other day and noticed the display said " service vehicle soon " I looked at my temp creeping and knew it was the belt again. I raised the hood to slap it back on and noticed that the idler pulley and part of the bracket that it bolts to was beneath the motor. This is the idler pulley that is bolted to the aluminum bracket along with the alternator and power steering pulley. It snapped it off clean and deep in to the bracket. I am having the bracket welded back up and hopefully it doesn't happen again. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem.
