I had not been actively driving my 1990 gq for a while. I took it for a drive last week and again today and noted a discernible scraping/scratching/grinding noise in the engine bay. As it is difficult to describe, I posted a YouTube video to try and assist. I'm fairly sure that the noise is coming from the fan belt/pulley region. I had a look and couldn't see anything physically scraping against the engine block or belts.
The scraping noise appears in the video between the approximate times of 0:06-0:11 and 0:42-0:45. Apologies for the noise from the wind, garage doors were open.
If anyone has had similar issues or may know a potential issue, please let me know your thoughts.
