When the car 1st starts up or(when the engine is cold), NO noise is generated.

After driving awhile, Noise is only generated when the car start moving slowly esp in slope, but no problem in high speed driving.
basically, when lifting up the clutch padel half way while the gas padel in half way, or i would say when the car just just start to move slowly, its generated. the noise likes a metal metal friction noise around pulley area. dry pulley noise.

Hmmm strange. So its not a tapping or anything like that? Have you checked the belt for wear? Just in case something is making contact with it.

I know the aux belt tensioner can make some weird noises when they are worn. Get it removed and checked :)
