Remove the aux belt, start it up and run for just 15 seconds or so.
See if the noise remains :y

you can run it for a bit longer than 15secs with no water pump running ;) ;) as long as you're not revving the nuts off it. :y

I don't like running engine for too long, knowing no coolant is going around it.
Can usually tell very quickly, if its gone its gone. If its still there, cam belt cover and belt need to come off!
But see what you are saying :)
