Default Some Chatter from my water pump area

So as I was tuning this afernoon I noticed some chatter from my water pump area. Sounded like bad ball bearings. I hope it s the waterpump bearings and not something more. A water pump is a pretty easy fix. I think Ill get back out there and pull the belts off and rotate it by hand to see if it spins rough or not.

Any other ideas?

grab the pulley and yank up and press down on it? Any play at all?

If yes then yes.
