Default Belt Tensioner Question

My belt tensioner seems to be slowly expelling the white Teflon tape wound around the spring. Last year there was 1" hanging out. At the time I wasn't sure what it was so I cut it off. Now there is a 3" long piece hanging out. The opposite end must have come free or torn from its mounting?
I reviewed Dave Hetrick's well documented tensioner rebuild process and didn't see anything mentioned about how the end of the tape is fastened. Any advice?

Thanks,
