That makes a lot of sense. It’s dark and raining right now so I will do this tomorrow. I appreciate the response!

Update: Alternator replaced/all pulleys checked and still has this noise. Sounds like it’s coming from inside the engine, like a piston scraping the cylinder walls or something. Seems like the engine is done.
