pully squeel

so i washed my engine the other day and now one of the pullys that ahs the smaller belt on it is making GOD AWEFUL noises!! i ca spray it with wd-40 and it quiets down, but once i give it gas starts up again. is there one certain pully that does this often or do i just get to pick and hope i replace the right one? if i even need to replace it?

i'm not spraying the belt, that would make it slip, im only spraying the pully, which is why i would actually think it would be the pully?

took all my pulleys off and cleaned and repacked with grease, and noise wouldn't go away, then while car was at a shop, they traced it to the ac belt!!
