I removed every Bob Seger pulley on my 01 because they were moaning out their one note song.
Seriously I'm replacing every pulley on my 01 because the seals have leaked out all the lube. I was scoping my motor tracking down annoying noises and they all sounded horrible. The car only has 41k miles but all the bearings had slung their lube. No revelation just a notice to check your pulleys. Mine will be in Monday.

That's probably not a bad idea. I replaced my tensioner and belt a few years back and noise is happening again. I gotta check into pricing, replacing all that factory garbage may not be a bad idea.
OK gatorback belts came in. They are quieter but my biggest problem was the tensioner was loose. I didn't notice when I changed the pulley but today I noticed it had a wiggle. Tightened it up and no more squeek. And to say I just new my AC had a bad bearing. So if you have a belt squeek check your tensioner(s) it may be loose.
