AC compressor indeed....

New unit along with belt tensioner and rollers (preventative) parts are $900 and labor is about 9 hours.

I had a very similar event last weekend with one of my SUVs. The belt popped off (burned through) a minute after I shut down. I Just finished replacing the compressor and tensioner. About $200 in parts for an 03 Ford.
Compressor bearing made noise on startup for a few days before the smoke, but it went away as soon as it warmed up.
