Jesus. Glad you survived. Hearing this, I have to get a belt guard too.

I think 'check your aux belt' has to be added to the nagging 'check your oil' posts!!

I think you need to check the pulleys for their run-out. It appears to be (and I am only guessing from a few pics) that you may have run-out issues with one or more of your pulleys or maybe the bearing at the power steering pump is suspect giving the same symptoms.
Given how the belt seems to have delaminated I think there has been some HCF (caused by the run-out)which has caused a crack in the belt resulting in it peeling away as it has.
Glad you were lucky. Good to see one beat the odds! As Sxkom suggests. I believe that misalignment of the belts was the cause of Proccy's serial engine failures, so worth checking the alignment of the ancilliary pullies.

We must all do our part for the planet.
I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.
