Could be the alternator belt, needs changing when the cambelt is done - well, mine was as I thought its best to when its next to it.

Take a can of wd40 with you. When the engine is running carefully spray one pulley at a time to see if it stops.

Looks good but a lil over priced in my opinion.

Well if it only does its wet then spray each pulley until you hear the noise. Then haggle on price due to replacement part.
