Solved - Rattle from the timing belt side

Alright, so clutch rattle being out of the way, onto the next thing... I shoved a mic under the hood on the timing/accessory belt side and recorded this at idle.

Does that sound familiar to anyone? Any opinions on whether this can be a bearing going bad or just a loud belt? Trying to diagnose with lazyweb again before attempting to get dealership techs to listen to my recordings :LOL:

Car is at 56k city miles.

Was it this sort of noise? Mines been making this noise since the Cambelt was changed…
