I'll probably not the best person to answer this. I'm not expert. Farm stores or better yet your local tractor dealer, ususally have metal splice kit for belts. These sometimes need a special press thing to crush the splice through the belt material. Or, you can use the old method of lacing the belt ends together with thread, leather, or whatever. For this, ask an oldtimer or read Machinery Handbook. This is a common book that machinists have - full of specifications, dimensions, etc for this line of work. Most copys of this book still have a section of how to lace machinery belting - there's a special way to do it correctly. good luck. I'm looking to do this myself soon.
