HELP! Stripped N52 tensioner T55 hole

Hi all. I somehow managed to replace just the belt for an emergency fix before ordering the whole pulley and idler set.

Today, I was trying to get the belt off and stripped the T55 hole on the tensioner. I have no idea how I got it done the first time around, but I made a mess of it this time around.

What's the best solution here? Can I just take off the idler and/or the tensioner without removing the belt first?

Just cut the belt and buy a new belt.
