What happens if a serpentine belt is not squarely aligned in the pulley grooves?

Serpentine-type belts have a flat profile with a number of grooves running lengthwise along the belt. These grooves are the exact reverse of the grooves in the outer edge of the pulley wheels; they increase the contact surface area, as well as prevent the belt from slipping off the wheel as it rotates.

Does a serpentine belt affect the operation of a car's gas gauge?
not technically. The serpentine drives the pulleys under the hood. The fuel gauge's float is located in the fuel tank. So no, but if the serpentine belt is off long enough it could affect it if the battery level got too low. But the car will die long before that happens.

The best way to replace the serpentine belt is to remove it from the tensioners. You have to put pressure on the stress points to get the tensioners to release the belt. Once that happens you can replace the belt with a new one following the diagram in your owner's manual.
