Lightbulb Bad Smog Pump?

I have a 1985 270 MH w/ 65k miles, I have replaced the fan belt 4 times on the alt/smog and finally think they have it right. turns out the smog pulley was missing. Now I get whining noise when I accelerate and stops for a moment when I left off the gas. Could this noise be from the smog pump? Also I know that the alternator is from a local parts house. My information that I got shows that it came with Lestek alternator and seperate regulator.. Any thoughts?

since it stops when you let of the gas, it does sound like a loose belt. Did that noise start right after the belt replacement or after you drove some miles?

bad Smog Pump

The belt is new with 150 miles on it. It may just need to be tighten. I am gun shy of over tightening. Thanks
Will give it a go
