I work out belt lengths using CAD. Draw the pulleys as simple circles in their respective places then draw the belt path from pulley to pulley (my cad has a tangent snap making this really easy). Cut out the unwanted bits of the pulleys leaving the belt path as one continuous outline. Use the measure tool to measure the length of the outline. It takes very little time and gives an accurate result for any combination of pulleys.
