Harmonic Balancer Check
I'm beginning the process of chasing a squeak. It's small but it bothers me. I'm starting at the belt, specifically that infamous harmonic balancer. I took a video where you can hear the squeak/chirp/squeal or whatever you want to call it. The balancer looks fine to me, but I'd like the experts here to give a second opinion. What do you think?

Bad/dry idlers have been known/reported to cause a squeeking sound.
Given the age of C6 not unusual a'tall, & thankfully a lot less grief than a HB replacement
Bad HBs have an obvious wobble, my money says not HB.
