Default Help! what's this noise?

it started a while ago, I thought it was a pulley but after listening to it with the hood open it sounds more like a bearing. what do you guys think it is?

Just took it to our mechanic. He said "that's not good, you're leaving it here." So hopefully it's nothing too bad. We'll see.

It was just the tension pulley. It's all good now.
