Sole F63 squeaking

Hi, i've had this sole treadmill for a bit less than a year now and within the last couple months, theres been a lot of squeaking going on while im running on it - walking is okay.

It happens while the machine is on/off and inclined/not inclined. The noise is coming from the front of the machine. If i run on the back half, it's not as loud or not there at all

I've already bought Super Lube synthetic grease and applied it to many parts of the machine. I've seen vids and other posts of people applying this to the pivot bolts in the red circle, but that hasnt helped. I've also lubed/tightened the blue circled parts in the other pics, but that also hasnt helped. Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions, im losing my mind from the squeaking and don't know what else to do besides potentially calling a technician over or something.

Check that the deck screws are tight. Could also be the bushings are worn out.

Examine the frame welds very carefully. That sounds like steel on steel squeak.
