It may be the timing belt pulley or tensioner. If so, it needs to be repaired ASAP. If that breaks it's bad new.

I just replaced them in my 960. The tensioner roller was so loose it spun freely like a loose wheel on a roller skate and the pulley was so tight that it took 2 hands to turn it. Bad situation. If either breaks it will likely do a lot of damage.
