Not wishing to disturb your happy thoughts but if spraying the pulley above the alternator stopped the squeal then I'd suggest checking the play in that bearing cus it's the water pump and it's no fun if that goes on a dark night in the middle of no-where. Ask me how I know :-(

Altering the angle of the belt by using Bluestrobe's fix may just be masking a soon-to-fail pump bearing. Changing the angle of the belt also alters the direction of loading on the pulley/bearing and may cause the noise to go away temporarily.

Gotta be worth a look see :-)
