Car squels after reaching operating temp.

Ok, so first off I have posted this problem before but im still unable to fix the problem. The problem is that once my car reaches 200 degrees after staying at 200 for a minute or two it drops back down to 180, im not sure if this is the thermostat or what but after it drops back down to 180 the car starts squealing. It sounds like a belt squeling or something but it only does it with heat so I'm not sure what it is. Any help is greatly appreciated

The water pump may be leaking out of the weep hole on the bottom when warm. The coolant drips right on the belt and causes it to slip/squeal.
