Default Bad power steering pump or pulley?

So I have a belt squeal, doesnt generally occur at idle but when I turn the wheel it gets louder. This is also fairly intermittent, some days it does it somedays it doesnt. Im pretty sure this is either a pump or a pulley. Any help would be appreciated!

Check to see if your power steering system is leaking. Could be the reservoir, pump, or high pressure line. If it is leaking I would advise you get it fixed or it may take out your alternator given time.
