Loud squeaking sound

After the car warms up I can hear a loud squeak, it’s not constant but happens every 2 or 3 seconds. It'll run and you will hear squeak, like a bird chirping or some thing. My a/c comp is broken and blowing hot air is that what it could be?

It got soaked in coolant a couple times when the wp bloew, but I have a new wp and opti, its hard man. Because in a span of two months my car let me down, I use to jump in and go on long road trips like nothing. But now I have to learn to trust the car again, and every time it makes a little noise or the ses light comes on I freak out, even if I know its probably some thing minor.

The LT1 has a spring tensioner that tensions the belt. There is only one large serpentine belt. It can't be tensioned. Perhaps your tensioner is worn and not keeping the belt tensioned properly?
