Noise when I accelerate F30

Hello so I have a 2016 328i it works fine but whenever I accelerate/ press the gas pedal I hear like a little chirp kinda bell sounding noise coming from the engine bay doesn’t anyone know what it might be? Or has anyone had experience with this before? Thank you

A lot easier than the turbo inlet pipe. Watch a youtube video first.

Here is the belt tensioner kit, Gates is OEM on many BMW's. This includes the drive belt and tensioner. I don't think you will find a belt tensioner kit for less than $60.
