No, most Sony belts are now obsolete, even my C9 cannot be repaired apparently.

Every rubber belt you could wish for is available if you're willing to have it 3d printed. A wide range are available in Chinese selection packs on ebay at typical Chinese prices. There's also in most cases the option to glue your own.

Sometimes large O rings can be pressed into service, one advantage being that they cost pennies and not pounds.
