I had a similar prob on my VTS about a year ago, at first I thought it was to do with the cambelt tensioner, but it turned out to be the bottom pulley (the big one that turns the alternator belt). The rubber part of it had badly perrished and fallen apart causing lots of play and noise from the pulley. Maybe worth checking it mate?
