I'd check real close at your tensioner pulley. Otherwise I can't really think of what could be squeaking internally.

I had a spun cam bearing do that, it made a squeeling sound in the center of the engine that would randomly come and go until it was so bad it siezed.

The idler/tensioner pulley bearings can do that..check those out ASAP... no sense in letting a $20 part leaving you stranded

Ok Noise 1 is gone but Now I'm getting a ticking from the passagers side of the engine under the valve cover... Its never been like that before, I just changed the oil a week ago, I made the change to synthetic after 55k.... Could that be it, should I change back?
