My husband thinks its the harmonic balancer, but i think it might be the serpentine belt.

This sounds like you could have a bearing going out on either an idler pulley or a bearing on one of the components that the drive belt drives. A good way to determine this is to start your vehicle and open the hood and then listen and determine where the sound is coming from. Please get back to us with what you discover, and we can take it from there.

Thanks,
