Default Belt replacement

Ok, I have watched the video on replacing my belts in my 2008 LR3. My wife drove home about 15 miles and somewhere along the way the serp belt came off. I am not really sure if you can drive with the belt off but apparently she did.

My issue is that I can not seem to get off the fan. I have the rounded 36mm tool for the nut but not sure how to keep the other side from rotating. I have tried a large flat screw driver but really not enough room. I thought maybe the small square holes in the other tools in the kit might work but again not enough room.

The video I watched showed the nut turning clockwise when looking from the front of the vehicle. I assume this is correct.

Thoughts. Suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

Auto Parts store should sell the other tool to keep it from spinning. I think it's another narrower spanner.

I think it came in the kit they loaned me. Didn't realize that I was looking for something to go around the nuts on the pulley. With that said assuming that the nut rotates clockwise to come off standing at the frnot of the car I still can get the thing to budge.
