Default Squealing help

I have had this squealing/squeaking (sounds like a bad belt) noise for a few months, I’ve just dealt with it but now it’s just annoying me and I can’t stand it lol.

DOES NOT HAPPEN ON COLD STARTS, when engine is warm at idle it will squeal (like a bad belt), then put car in gear (1st) start releasing clutch and it gets louder with the RPMS then once in gear it goes away. Only happens when idling and releasing into 1st.

I have replaced all the bearings in the pulley already, I have not replaced the belt because with the belt off the noise is still there.

any insight would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Definitely is not a belt or pulley issue then.

Possibly a clutch throwout bearing going bad. When making the noise at idle, does it change at all when you depress the clutch, but do not put it in gear?

The noise will stay the same with clutch pushed in.
