it also could be one of the pulleys run off the serpentine belt. Remove the belt and spin each pulley by hand and listen for noises. The one that make a noise is what needs replacing.

okay will check on that. Also I was thinking maybe the belt was too tight. Seems like when it rains or go through water it does that.
