Default Water pump pulley

So I just ran up on a squeak and it’s my water pump pulley. The 4 bolts on are tight as can be but the pulley is shakeable and the pulley has started to cut into the block. I was wondering if anyone knew what I should do or why it’s doing that. Thanks

Replace at least the water pump if not the whole system.

Yes, water pump bearings are shot and you need to replace it
