That is not a slot, it is piece broken out of the back of the pulley. There is a guy on e-bay that sells new three belt pulleys. The first photo is his. The second and third photos, are of the original 2 belt pulley, when I bought the car. The piece that is broken on the 3 belt pulley is cracked on the 2 belt pulley.
