You sure he didn't just hit the belt with belt dressing? Lube on a friction plate like in the A/C clutch is a bad thing. Like phatboislim said, tighten the belt. Belts will often stretch a bit after initial install and is normal to need re-torquing. If the factory doesn't spray the belts then why should a shadetree mechanic?
