Funny noises

My truck was making a tik since I got it that sounded like leaking air. I just figured I had a small hole rusted inthe exhaust manifold. Well now its making a louder tic and it has a bit of a squeel with it. It still sounds similar to the air, but louder. I only notice it when I start from a stop and then go and if I let off the gas while its doing it, it goes away. I have no idea what it would be!

would that cause it to squeel? I got to thinking today and it can't be an air leak, because it doesn't do it when I rev the truck engine. ONly when the truck is moving. Now I'm thinking a bearing or something?
