Title: Alternator noise at idle

I have the 100 AMP Tuff Stuff 8509DSP alternator. It was fine until today, I drove around for awhile, and heard a high pitched noise. Got home and opened the hood and it seems like its coming from the alternator. When I give it gas it goes away. I re tightened the belt but no love.

Thoughts?
