Default If your alternator squeaks...does it need to be replaced?

I am in the middle of my cam swap and remembered that I had been hearing a squeaking when the engine is on, so I spun the pulleys and my alternator squeaks...I have had no problems charging and there is no wobble. Is it going bad? Does it need to be replaced? Is there anything I can do? Thanks!

Not really anything you can do besides replace it.
One of the alternator bearings is failing.
It not an immediate concern but you'll have to do it sometime.
