I have a squeaking noise coming from the engine when I drive. At first I thought that it may be the fan belt but unlike the fan belt noise that disappears this noise is constant. It makes less noise when I engage the clutch. My worries are that it may be the water pump. Can anybody shed some light on this?
 
Not the fan belt, there isn't one.

Maybe a noisy throw out bearing. It's really hard to diagnose sounds without a video.
 
... It makes less noise when I engage the clutch....

Sorta makes me want to take a closer look at the clutch throwout bearing. Then again it could just be as simple as the A/C or accessory belt. Mist a little water on them while running and see if the noise gets worse or goes away.
