The master farter
Oem tensioners are the way to go. Then either buy an aftermarket one as a spare and chuck in under the pax seat or rebuilt the old one.
This will stop your car from going anywhere as Darren mentioned. I always kept a spare on me the while time. Use an OEM belt or a Gates belt when changing it too.
The bearing used in the oem tensioners you cannot buy. The are a special double row ball bearing. All the bearings available at the bearing shops arent. The right size though but not double row.

Is a genuine pulley only available to purchase or with a kit only? Have only tried to source one online with nothing.

I could not find the pulley only so have bought pulley and tensioner on eBay from this mob.
