Or just take some tyre chalk to the inside of the belt when it's running. But for the sake of 9 quid and 30 seconds work, could just replace the belt.

Try a new belt and if it's not that, with the car running, put a screw driver to the pump and put the other end to your ear and you will be able to hear it if it is that. Could also be the alternator

Nah it's not strange. It acts the same way as a stethoscope. Great for pin pointing noises. What engine is it btw?
