Chirping sounds are often from the idler tensioner pulley's aswell. If you start having the chirp again, check the idler pulley's, one will probably need replacing.
Also, my experience with both auto's and manuals. The motor will turn over no matter what gear it's in, e-brake applied or front jacked up. That's simply why there is a tool for that.

Thanks to everyone who chirped in (I mean chipped in) on this thread!

Wow, what a relief that I don't have to take the Harmonic Balancer off again!
