I had the same problem with my gatorgrip belt last month. Your water pump is leaking in the vent hole onto the water pump pulley, then on to the belt. Change out the water pump.. then clean the old belt to get rid of the grease/fluids. or just change out a new belt while your at it.

It took me over 3 weeks to find out this problem. When it got worse, i.e. I had a coolant spray trail under the hood, and my coolant tank would go dry every other day.

1.) this is not your truck. This is the alero. We can't loosen our belt since we have a self tensioner.
2.) I just went through (my above post experience last month) , and was just telling him what to look for when and if his water pump is going out.
3.) I'm in school for automotive service technition.
