Squeak or squealing noise from the lower front of the engine is usually a worn crankshaft damper (harmonic balancer, if you will). Check for cracks in the elastic material between the hub and outer ring of the damper.
the pulley is made of steel not plastic, I took off
the timing cover I found the Timing chain was loose
thats why my engine would shake and screech almost as if the engine
was going to die out
Im going too buy a Timing kit, water pump
