Default tensioner pulley

I have a 2008 Ody EX. It seems the tensioner pulley is defective. Is it possible to replace just the pulley or must I purchased the entire assembly that includes the bracket and idler pulley?

If it really is only a defective pulley, you can buy and replace just the pulley.

Tech8,
Thank you for the reply. Actually, that is going to be my plan. I'll do the idler pulley as well and put on a new belt.

Is there a way to get the torque specs for all the bolts that I will have to remove? I found a video on 1aauto (did the work on an '07 Pilot) that said the small bottom bolt was 16ft/lb and the center
bolt was 33 ft/b. --- am hoping that is correct. However, I can't find the torque spec for the replacing the tensioner pulley itself (service manuals on ebay are not cheap).

Thanks again for any information.

If you have J35A9 (spring-loaded tensioner):
Tensioner pulley: 59 lbf-ft
Idler pulley: 33 lbf-ft

If you have J35Z1 (hydraulic tensioner):
Idler pulley: 55 lbf-ft

Both engines, case bolt: 16 lbf-ft
