Well I can almost guaruntee it's not your timing belt, probably power steering or your alternator belt. When they start squealing it usually a sign to replace it. So spend the 15bucks and replace it.

no, don't have timing belts on 5.0's or 4.6's... timing belt / chains connect the cam(s) to the crank. You accessory / serpinetine belt runs your accessories like alternator, ps pump, etc.
