Horrible sqealing after EGR port cleaning

When I cleaned the egr port and intake manifold earlier tonight, everything went smoothly....That is until I turned the car on to hear a horrendous screeching. It comes from around the neighborhood of the belts and water pump area.
We didnt touch anything down there, but a little bit of carb cleaner dripped into the spacer underneath the IM that leads to the cylinders.

I think I smelled burning after I drove it, which was only for .5 miles, but my buddy was smoking so I couldnt really tell. When I pulled into the driveway, I noticed the car was not even warmed up yet either, so could something still be burning.

Any ideas as to whats going on? Or better yet, how to fix it?
Thanks guys.

Maybe belt dressing or something?

make sure everything is tightened down. I had a similar experience, and it came out to be that i forgot to tighten the throttle body down =/

Nope, everything is tight. I turned on the car this morning, and nothing. No squeaking, or anything. Shes running like a champ, much better throttle response. And Kris, I am waiting for my buddy to send me the pics we took last night, so hopefully they will come out good and make their way into the new diy.
