Squeaky Brakes?how to fix?

I think I found my squeaky red bird noise and when I press brakes it goes away. If I am going 20 and ride the brakes for a short distance , no squeak . So my squeak is coming from my right front. Is there anything I can do to the brake?

I have the plate, i removed it. I wonder if i should clip the value line going to the air breather and plug the cap? It's going to be a bugger getting my hand back on that inline value nut.
