Belt adjustment is off. Takes a bit of playing around but you can get it to ride correctly with some effort. Set your belt adjustment at what lordgt said and then use the right side tensioner to adjust where the belt rides on the pulley. The noise is probably due to the belt being too tight and/or riding against the side of the rear pulley.
Remember that your trans assembly is probably not perfectly aligned with the frame. Therefore your caliper reading is probably not too useful.
