Possibly a bad start among other things. Have you checked that out?

Bad waterpump bearing, or alternator bearing, idle pulley bearing, if you have a idler pulley.

you are right...... it wasn't the belt it has to be the beering that the first belt drives. either the water pump or power steering. the noise was gone and I thought i fixed it, but it just came back this morning. i changed the belt already so it cant be the belt.
