2014 F-150 Ecoboost beltless model

I got this truck with only 20k on it and it's the 3.5 engine. It was towed in with both belts gone. Well the stretchy a/c belt is stuffed down behind the crank pulley. I looked at all the pulleys and such and don't really have an explanation as to why it slung the belts off.

 

I seem to remember an update to install a tensioner kit to convert the stretchy to a normal but not sure what the reason was other than making it......you know.....like it should be. Any thoughts?

Well it turns out the tensioner update is for the 5.0L. So there goes that idea. I'm gonna stick a set of belts on it and see what happens.
