96 Hilux harsh noise

Hi all.
1996 LN106 Hilux
I've got a harsh squealing noise comming from either the alternator or a/c pump (fairly certain). It happens at idle and driving, intermittently, doesn't seem to get any worse or better at higher revs. The belts aren't too shabby but could probably be replaced. Alternator seems to charge fine, although it's only just started occuring.
I've got no problem pulling off the belts, alternator ect, i'm more concerned about getting replacement parts at short notice due to the floods in my area, so i'm hoping someone can give me a more precise idea of what it might be so I can make some phone calls and see what parts I can get my hands on without having my car in pieces.
Cheers.
