In cases like this the belt is usually fine and the letters stamped on it might be a little off center giving the appearance of wobble as they pass by.

A slightly misaligned pulley nearby the water pump could also be the reason why the belt looks to be slithering like a snake.
Well thats comforting to hear. Thanks. I will go check it again. Ive never looked at it before while idling so I cant honestly say if it was like this or not. But it caught my eye.
