Best bet is just take it to a good garage (not necessarily a main dealer) and see what they say.

What he said.

Out of interest, if you switch the AC on / off does it change the pitch of the noise or anything?  When I had a problem with my tensioner I found that switching the AC on or off changed the pitch slightly.  If it does then at least you know it something to do with that belt and its unlikely to be a majorly serious problem.  If it doesn't change then it doesn't really tell you anything  :sad:.
