"dry bearing noise" coming from top....
#31
Unplug the MAF, remove airbox, start the engine, and then use a mechanics stethoscope on each of the pulley bolt heads and the front bearing area of each accesory. The culprit will be very obvious. You can get a stethoscope to do the job at any parts store for about $10.
My car made a similar noise and it was clearly the right most pulley. This one is loaded more heavily than the others and should fail well before the others. You can get it out easily by removing the PS pulley first and flexing the engine mount plate a little with a pry bar. Not a simple drop in like the other one.
On mine, the failed pulley could not be felt as bad once the belt was off. It spun quiet and free.
You can get the new pulley with bolt online for about $100.
