Default Questions on 1923 Model 66 Red Eye Treadle

I have been cleaning my treadle with lots of care as not to damage the decals. So far, so good.
It didn't come with a belt or needles so I need to purchase these. I have been trying to research what length belt for this model and what needles to start with but haven't found specific sizes so I was hoping someone here could help me with the following 2 questions. I can order from online but I want to get it right the first time.
Thanks in advance for your help.

(1) I'm guess a 72" belt would be fine and I can cut it down but should I get a 5/16 or 3/16 size?
(2) Also will any Singer needles work or do I need a certain length/size to start with?
