there are two, the upper one on the tensioner is smaller diameter, it has grooves in it, the one that I find goes out first is the larger diameter smooth pulley mounted forward, beneath the air box. It is likely the plastic one he is referring to. 40,000 mi is a little soon for replacement, I replace my pulleys (both) and belt at 50k intervals.
People I know that try to go over 80k are the ones who get to walk home and pay lots of money for repairs. Remember, you will lose your power steering, charging capabilty, water pump, air pump, and AC. If the pulley seizes and throws the belt and youi keep driving you will overheat the engine and can cause some real damage. It is cheap insurance.
