You have to take the dryer apart and check the idler pulley and its bracket and spring. The idler bracket could be rubbing against the drum belt making that noise.

Here is the Service manual.

I would also check the rear support rollers.
Often when one of those goes it sounds like someone left a running shoe etc. in the dryer.
