Squeaking noise after replacing prop

Hi,
I had to remove the prop from my 2006 F150 to have it worked on and when I replaced the prop I gave it a spin, by hand, to make sure the prop shaft was not bent. When I spun the prop I noticed a squeaking noise. I can't tell exactly where the noise is coming from. The noise is not exceptionally loud but is very evident.

Any idea as to what could be the cause of this noise?

Thanks in advance for the advice.

Remove prop and see where it is rubbing.----------If need be spray some paint on it to help find where it is rubbing. Or you could use some grease to find the spot where it is rubbing.
 
Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

I took the prop off again and put some lube on the outer seal. Cured the noise.

Thank goodness for this forum.
