I did a search for Volvo Penta 225d parts lookup and chose the Volvo Penta Store, clicked on look ups, then pre 1987 engines. It was much friendlier than some of the other sites for drilling down into engine model number. There is a fair amount of interpolation involved as to titles from there. Cooling system was easy, then there were all these drawings that were the same. I found engine model application notes in the lower left corner so then it was a matter of finding to 225D. Finding the oil filter was a bit more of a challenge. The Lubriating System is under, and on the second page of the Engine section.
On this page you will find the fan belt number and a series of water pump numbers. You will need to open this page to match the numbers up to the most current. There are two water pump breakouts at the bottom of this page:
As to where to buy your parts, there is nothing magical about a Volvo belt, impeller or filter. Drive gears, shafts and bearings are things I tend to look carefully at the brand name stuff. Your engine is a run of the mill GM 305 truck/rv motor with some special freeze plugs and a few other marine specific parts. Cross reference your VP part numbers to other brands of good reputation. For instance, the Jabsco makes excellent impellers in my experience and I have had good service from Sierra parts. I go to NAPA for my belts and the stores can do the cross reference. The online for most of the auto guys sucks because unless you give a car, truck or atv make and model, the system doesn't know how to look it up. The oil filter is going to be a chev filter, pick a high quality brand and go with it.
As to where to buy parts, some of it depends on where you are and what you are buying. Personally, I use Amazon Prime a lot. I'm also just north of Seattle so there are plenty of resources, but Fisheries Supply gives a yacht club discount so they are high on my list. On line, Google your part number and there will be lots of stores looking for your money. However, take into consideration any shipping fees and taxes that may or may not be added. When doing price comparison I alway look at the total cost delivered to me.
It takes some time to figure some of this stuff out and I probably spend as much time armchair boating, like this, doing my own shopping and working on as I do using using my boat.

I am always supervised by my wife, so y'all is appropriate.
NEW JERSEY!!?!! There are transplants all over the place. I however, am not one. I did learn as we were raising our kids that there are distinct disadvantages to living in the same small city and the same church that I grew up in. Too many of those old fogies shaking their heads say "just like their dad".
If you need any more help, let me know.
