Have you carefully examined the bearing spindle and housing for damage? I can't hear the slightest peep out of mine.If everything looks okay, you might try removing the oil from the bearing sump (soak it up with a paper towel or use a syringe), and flush out the bearing with a little lighter fluid in case there's some fine metal particles or dirt present.
Clean out the lighter fluid, flush it again with fresh oil, and refill the sump.
That's all I can think of off hand. Good luck!
