The tensioner bracket & pulley wheel are the same ones as the ones on ebay. Just get the kit with the timing belt and bin the timing belt ;)

 

Just get the OE belt from Toyota :)

 

You don't need 13540 if it isn't broken. As long as when you lean on it (full weight) it doesn't go in then you are fine. Make sure you align the hole before fitting it though as fitting it by screwing it into place will over stretch the timing belt.
