Squeaky startup after stuck in mud

Hey guys, back for more of your wisdom. About 4 days ago I was unfortunately stuck in mud and couldn't get out for the life of me, rain sucks with dirt. After a couple min. of spinning forward and back I finally rocked my self out. Took a look at my car and there was mud every where, all over the car. The next day I started my car up normally and noticed a pretty loud squeal/squeak for about 3-6 sec. after that it was gone. Ever since then it does it 1 out of every 2 startups. The noise seems to be coming from the alternater area or front passenger side.

What do you guys think it is and is it something I should be concerned about or is it going to go away in a couple of days/weeks?

Thank you for your time.

hey guys, just got back after losing internet connection for a day. But anyways, I was going to an auction and didn't see the water in the grass. I was in a hurry, they were already starting the biddings and didn't want to miss out. Plus they didn't have any cement lots, it was a dealer's car auction. So I parked there and after it was over I went out and tried to reverse out of the puddle, next thing I know mud was flying everywhere.

The belts were fine till that day happened, so I thing the mud may have dried out the belts or something.
