Fan belt - wrong size?

I’ve just received a replacement fan belt I ordered, which I believe is the correct size. I’ve ordered 10x825. The car is 1964 1098 with an alternator fitted. However I’ve just had a look at the belt fitted on the car and it says 05-94. I haven’t seen this as a suggested size.

Could it be May-94 as in the date of manufacture?

Blimey, I hope not. It does seem overdue a replacement and looser than it should be, hence why I want to change it. I’m not sure what all the numbers are referring to.

I’m pretty sure the car has been stripped down since 1994, although I’ve only owned it 3 years.

Would the 825 I have seem a suitable replacement or is fitting it the only way to find out?
