Unhappy Squeal/squeak coming from engine

Hi all, had a search around and couldn't find anything, sorry to post ANOTHER thread!

Having a little trouble with my xt's motor, basically it squeals/squeaks when 'pulling' in low speed, i.e setting off in first & low speed acceleration in 2nd (15-25mph-ish).

The best way I can describe it is akin to the sound of a squeaky fan belt on a car (a sound most people will be familiar with). I'm not very mechanically minded so wouldn't know the first place to start looking. Do these bikes have a belt of sort that could cause this noise? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

EDIT:
Got a video:
