I've re-ordered another tension pulley from ECS thinking the one that they sent was faulty (unlikely) and I've done the OFHG. There is no visible sign of oil on the belt or anywhere around the belt. Any ideas why I'm still getting a squeak?
Also have installed OEM alternator and AC compressor in the last 1k miles that didn't solve the problem.

Another thread mentioned that the bolts on the power steering pump can loosen and back out. Like this:
Maybe check that?
