Is it the belt or the idle pulley
#2
Could be the belt, idler pulley, tensioner, or any one of the other pullies.
Best course is the start it and go and look/listen. I used an extension bar to push on the tensioner to see what that did to the sound. Found bad tensioner, idler pulley, and a balancer that had walked off.

You could also eliminate one tensioner by swapping to a stretch belt for the A/C like the GMT900's.
Part # shown is what fit on my 2006 6.0; you can skip that installation tool. Didn't work in my application. I just used zip-ties through the crank pulley and pulled the belt on turning the engine over with a breaker bar, no big deal.
