Is it the belt or the actually pulley?

Depends on how bad it is. You really need to take it out and inspect it to tell the condition of the bearing. Are there any vibrations coming from the bearing/unit itself?

Your symptoms are more like your alternater belt being too loose. Squeaking sound on idle, gets louder when reving up, then stops squeaking when at higher revs.

Have you tried tightening your belts?
I would try that before doing anything else.
