2002 Ford Ranger squeal

Car: Ford Ranger
Year: 2002
Variant: 2.5TD
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
I have a very noisy squeal coming from the engine, it started at around 100,000 miles.
In neutral if i dip the clutch pedal a little i get a faint squealing sound but his goes away if i fully depress the clutch pedal but when i accelerate the squeal can sometimes be extremely loud and will change pitch all the way up to about 3000rpm where it usually stops. Ive had the turbo checked, fitted new drive belts throughout and cant find any play in bearings on the water pump, alternator etc. any ideas where to look next???

check the auxillary belts are tensioned correctly,if the noise is coming when you dip clutch it could be a faulty release bearing
