Whirring noise during dry cycle on WD80J6410

Hello all,

Not sure if anyone can advise what the issue might be with my washer dryer during the dry cycle. The rear of the drum, at the centre of the motor area has started making an awful squealing noise. Video attached (hopefully)....

this could be 1 of 2 things a motor about to die or the black fan has melted from the heat which is not sitting on the spindle happened to me on a Hotpoint luckily I love taking things apart and I'm pretty skilled in repairing which is was the fan at the bottom had came off and making the whining noise exactly like this in your video.
