I finally got to it and noticed that serpantine belt is in horrible shape. Just by looking at it as running and off, do you see or hear any other issues?

That's pretty much what my belt looked like. It's hard to tell just by looking, so you'd have to take the belt off and check each pulley individually by spinning it with your hand and listening. And try to move them back & forth, front to back with your hand. They shouldn't have any play. Pay special attention to the water pump pulley. Mine had a bit of front-to-back play in it so I'm waiting for parts to replace it.
