Chirping noise coming from Belt Area

i noticed today, when I accelerate I hear a chirp noise that sounds like crickets. When I'm in 2nd gear it's the loudest, when I'm in the lower rpms it doesn't do it. Only chirps when accelerate, not when idling. I put it in neutral and revved it and it still was chirping. It sounds like a belt to me what do y'all think? what should I replace first? really lost on this one

How long since you changed the belts? You can try revving the engine while you watch the tensioner, if it bounces around or rattles your tensioner could be shot.

Most likely the belt but I would for sure check that auto tensioner. I have replaced the tensioner and bearing itself for noise before.
