Check pulley-to-alternator frame clearance. The pulley may be rubbing against the front of the alternator. I've run into this before. As in your situation, my first impression was to blame a slipping belt. A bad diode will also create such as noise. Check battery voltage with the engine running. It should be about 14.5 volts.
