Funny sound!

I have a 90 GSX and there is a sound coming from the engine, it kinda sounds like a dry power steering pump sound, all the time, but its not, it sounds like its coming from the belt side of the motor. You can kind of feel the sound to at times, it kinda vibrates. Any ideas?

put a long screw driver where you think the sound is coming from and put the handle to your ear, it will let you hear if a bearing is going out, be carefull, too!

start the engine without alternator, power steering, ac, and power steering pump before you put everything back. if no noise, put everything back together.
