Generator cooling fan has started squeaking

Is there anything I can do?
Not sure if there is a bearing that can be lubricated, greased or replaced.
I don't think it has anything to do with the motor.
Is it accessible from the outboard side of the fan or onboard side?
Thanks

The motor is the bearing. You have to pull the squirrel cage assembly out to service it.
