Default engine squeak

To start off with I have a 95 s-10 with 383 TPIS miniram engine and t-56. Recently I have started to hear a squeak. It almost sounds like a brake disc type of squeak, but it comes and goes. Sometimes you can hear it from idle all the way through the rpm range. Other times you hear it from 1500 on and other times you don't hear it at all. It really doesn't seem to change with the truck being warm or cold. Its just sometimes I can hear it and sometimes I can't.

Does anyone have any ideas?

maybe a pully or a belt that is worn out. my uncles 98 z28 would squeek whever his pully was going bad. it actually had a hairline crack in it. he replaced it and the squeel went away. i am just throwing ideas.

Figured it out. I had a tiny hole in the radiator hose which is right above the serp. belt. Every time it dripped onto the belt it would start squeking.
