What are your thoughts on this engine noise?

I hadn't started the car for 2 or 3 weeks. Today, when I started the car there was a loud squeaking/screeching noise appeared to be coming from the pulley area of the engine that lasted for around 10mins and then stopped and was running perfect again.

Any ideas please?

The squeaking noise could be due to a dry bearing in the pulley. If there's no change of the noise with the new belt on and the tension pulley and/or belt tension are ok try running the engine with the belt removed see if the noise is still there or not.
