What is making this sound? C5 mk. I

Re: What is making this sound? C5 mk. I
When I had that sound, it was Alternator clutch bearing. Having a number of spare belts from different cars, I found one that fitted with the alternator bypassed. Silence. It may also be one of the other belt tensioners. Experiment till you determine, rather than strip and replace parts willy nilly.
