Nice job on the video. I would examine the belts real well for any fraying. Then with the engine running check the pulleys as they turn for any wobble. Next take a screwdriver and hold it against several places on the engine to try and locate the source. You would be putting your ear to the screwdriver. Don't wear loose clothing or have your hair hanging out to get caught. I could be a bearing in the A/C pump, the alternator, the tensioner, the power steering, etc.
