It is the accessory belt. Americans call it the serpentine belt. The noise is a symptom of the belt losing friction from drying up and cracking or simply losing tension from age. Have a technician replace the belt. He should be able to do it in less than 0.5 hours labour if he is competent. From experience, I'd recommend using a genuine Toyota belt for your car.
