I had a similar noise on my car, 93 Aero, and though the noise coming from the belt area. It was long over due to replace and like you both pulleys were rough. The tensioner felt OK but I still get some vibration, more when the car is cold, feels like some thing loose on the exhaust but that is sound. Having read your post, I now wonder if it's the tensioner. What would describe as excessive bounce? mine moves a bit but looks what I would describe as normal. The tensioner whilst off felt alright and no oil leaks. It's travelled 153,000 miles so far! Since the belt/pullet replacement the car is smoother, noticeably on idle.
As a note I used a small spring compressor to compres the tensioner!
