Tensioner available on its own, circa £30

Started hearing a humming noise the other day. When on full lock it gets louder. Not long had new power stearing pump fitted so ruled that out. Put a metal bar on alternator then to my ear and there is no noise.Pulley sounds a bit ruff. any advice welcome.

I have replaced mine today after it started squealing badly. I wasn't sure where the noise was coming from so I took off the Aux belt and used loops of rubber strip to test each pulley seperately. I went to two Vauxhall Dealers (Greenhous) and both told me I could no longer buy the pulley on its own. They wanted £68 for the whole assembly. I bought a pattern item from ebay for £28, delivered next day.
