Power steering pump noise 200 1984

My PSP has been making a wheezing-type noise every time there is a lot of moisture in the air, such as during or after a rain, or on humid days. It almost never makes this noise when it is dry. This has been happening for years and it drives me crazy since it is so loud. I think I've narrowed the noise's origin to the pulley, which looks straight. It is the original pump and is the older style with the fluid reservoir built-in to the top.

Anything I can do about it other than replace the entire unit?
