Unhappy Weird squeak noise and engine shaking (a bit)

So recently my 06' RT Charger has been making a strange squeaking sound (seems to only happen when up to temperature). The noise is like a rhythmic squeak of sorts and can be heard at the passenger side wheel well and the left side of the engine compartment. Its not as loud on the right side of the engine bay. In addition, the car shakes only a bit when idling and as u can see in the video the engine shakes a bit as well. Not sure if the shaking is normal but included it just in case. The car has 113k miles and has the 5.7 V8. I have included the link to a video of the sound. Once again its like a rhythmic squeaking, not too loud to be fair and no it doesn't sound like knocking and i've been told it may be a bad bearing on the water pump or alternator. Apart from that car has no leaks or issues. The sound can be heard from the left side of the engine (not sure from where), above the passenger wheel well and I guess you could say a bit under the car? but that may just be echo. Anyhow let me know what your thoughts are. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Try this, Remove the fan belt and see if the noise/sound is still there.
