Default chirping nows from engine

I have a 2012 dodge ram 5.7 Hemi, Recently started having chirping sound from engine. Removed belt and checked all pulleys, all ok. Decided to start engine with belt taken off and sound still there. Anyone ever experience this and if so what was the fix

First off, you're in the 2nd gen section so we don't have any idea what a HEMI is, haha!

But I can't imagine what would chirp with the belt removed? Maybe the crank seal or water pump?

A mod will come along and move this into the 4th gen section for you
