On 56 Dodges with power steering, the generator/PS Pump was mounted above the intake manifold on the drivers side. All used dual pulleys on the generator. The extra traction was required to keep the belt from slipping. On AC cars, there was a 3rd belt to the AC pump on the passenger side. I would expect Plymouth to be the same.

My mostly-educated answer is that it would be a single-groove pulley, since the PS pump was tandem to (mounted on the rear of) the generator, being driven via the generator pulley-axle interface.
Furthermore, dual-groove pulleys would have been used if A/C was installed.
