Doesn't squeak while idling. Only makes this noise while the gas pedal is pushed.

Probably a loose or worn belt or idler bearing.

You can trace noise with a tube to your ear for pinpointing sound. I use a vac sweeper wand or plastic/carboard pipe/tube. You can also by auto stethoscope at harbor freight for $5.

Your alternator may be going bad. I had my alt lock up and ruin all my belts.
