Time for a new belt?

Is it time for a new belt?

This squeaking sounds way different from the squealing I'm used to. Just started to happen today. I changed the oil but this completely unrelated.

not the belt, youve got something mechanically wrong along the accessory line or maybe even a bad timing pulley. not sure without seeing it in person. that's metal on metal, not belt squeal.

Turns out the AC compressor is broken. One of the bolts broke off and that's why it's causing the metallic rattling.

While crawling underneath the car at work, I also realize that there's coolant leaking at or near the waterpump- Horray!!
