Whining sound from Belt area

Hi,
I have a 2001 GTP, and just recently there has been a whining sound coming from the belt drive area of the motor. I have also noticed a grease type substance that is on the firewall and coolant resivour. Also the sound speeds up when you rev the car up. I have no experience with super chargers. I think it could be just a pulley from my experiences with naturally aspirated engines, but i am not sure. any help would be appreciated.
 


Are you loosing any coolant? When mine was going out is was making a mess under the hood over everything.
 


^^X2.

I'd also want to bet the CV boot tore AND the PS fluid levels are low...so he has all the built up grease + the whining.
 


like i said all of the fluid levels are good and the whine is coming from around the pulleys of the belts, and there are no leaks what so ever.
 


My friends gtp was doing the same whine noise and it wasnt from the sc and it would be a quite whine at idle and get lower as he mildly accelerated he was low on power steering fluid too but he never fixed the problem but i said it prob was the power steering pump
