You can get the belt size from the parts store, they should be able to look up the part for you.
In terms of how to do it. Instructions with pictures can be found here:

oh, and notaclue, a serpentine belt typically doesn't have anything to do with the valves, I think you're thinking of a timing belt.

There are CD's that have repair manuals you can find them on ebay for a few bucks that tells you how to do most anything. Most belts you have to loosen the tension and the new belt goes right on and then just tighten back but I don't know for sure about a Cougar.

The belt diagram will be around the engine compartment with the hood open. I don't know the size of the belt, but to change it just relax tension on the tensioner, usually with a 3/8 ratchet.

You better find a mechanic first to see if you bent all your valves if you broke the belt! You're supposed to "maintain" the vehicle and replace a worn belt BEFORE it breaks!!!!!

You can go to your local auto parts store and they can show and sell you one for your vehicle. Not very costly either.
