You've got this:

c. Crankshaft pulley is unrestricted.

And this:
n. Alternate water pump, alternator, power steering, and crank-
shaft pulleys of any diameter or material may be used. Type of
accessory drive (e.g., V-belt, toothed belt, etc.) shall remain as stock.

but I thought if it doesn't specifically allow it you can't? Not like I'd protest it or anything, but just curious.
Rule doesn't say 2 belts are legal, the rule says pulleys are unrestricted and alternates can be used except that type of drive shall remain as stock. Therefore, do what you want within those parameters.

I had a new belt slipping at high RPM that did nothing more than turn the alternator and waterpump (no fan). I also like the safety of knowing that if one belt breaks, there is a backup still turning the waterpump.
