Im assuming to get to the camshaft you have to take off some pulleys.. if they arent on right then they might be wobeling and possibly causing a noise.. they could be lose. Your belts could be dirty.

Whining or squealing?

Maybe someone tossed in a supercharger while you weren't looking?

it seriously sounds like someone put a s/c in my car, the only pulley i took off was the crank pulley and took off the belt. i didnt touch any other pulley's maybe i can take it to a dealer and see if i can get it under warrenty ...just keep out the part where i swapped my cams 2 times lol.

Are you positive its coming from your belts?

Lube it up to see if it stops, or get a wire brush and clean the belt while the car is running, just make sure you dont get it caught.

Do that and post back.
