Default Smaller idler pulley?

I bought my idler pulley from Oreillys the other day and it is alot smaller the the stock pulley. It almost looks the same size as the tensioner pulley. I even took it back to Oreillys and they said i had the right one. I was just wondering if this is normal and if i have the right pulley or not? thanx alot.

The truck idler pulley is a slightly larger diameter than that used on the Camaro/Corvette. Truck owners must switch over to the smaller pulley when installing the Mezeiere elec. pump to give the extra clearance needed for the belt to have minimal spacing at the pump outlet neck.
