For years my air pump has not been hooked up. About a month ago I put a belt on and got it going however the noise it made lead me to believe I had a cracked bearing. Indeed this was the case. I replaced the bearing and it spins great. The one issue I am still having is finding the correct size width, and style belt. Anyone know what the specs are for the air pump belt for a 1975 fj55?

It should be the same width as the belt for alternator.
You can measure the belt path with a string, then measure the length of said string, then go to your friendly NAPA (or other) and ask for that length belt. They may have to order it in...

I thought I might post the correct side belt here:
11/16" x 43 1/8" or 17mm x 1095mm fits perfect
Good info! I love when folks follow up with the solution.
It isn't relevant now but when you measure with a string don't let it sit in the belly of the pully. You will not get the true circumference and it will be tight or not fit at all.
