    The fluid level is pretty adequate...could the wrong fluid cause a problem? I never put any in but is it possible?

            if your steering wheel moves easily its not the fluid..and probably not the belt..unless its just a little loose....not really sure.

                            listen to what he's saying here.... if you turn the wheel from lock to lock it goes away... if it was something crank/thurst bearing related, that would have no effect on the noise.... Tom is the belt loose, or does it feel tight? Just replace that, and get it tightened tomorrow, and see where that puts you.

                              it makes a grinding noise at idle and goes away when you turn the wheel?

                                    Well here is what i did this weekend to it....first of all i checked the actual fluid and its supposed to be dexron III auto tranny fluid....the fluid was brown, sooo that i changed that out...and i tightened the belt but its still squealing...next plan of action is to just spray some wd40 on the crank pulley and pray for the best.....if that doesnt work then i might start thinking bearing but im not going to get ahead of myself just yet...
