It can get into places a stick or screwdriver cant. Most also have a long reach that helps keep your body parts away from moving components.
I have tried my stethoscope but with no luck, nothing sounds off. Are you saying to use bolts and washers and remove fan so i can eliminate the fan as the cause?
Yes that. I would also remove the pulley and check for wear marks anywhere in the area.But I am betting on the pump itself like DuckRyder is.
