Up would be fluid, down makes me think it could be other.
Operate lift with lift hatch door open and hear if it is the lift pump. It will be obvious if you are right in front of it.
If not then…
Get under camper, but away from the cables, and listen while another operates the lift for a few seconds. Listen for noise to come from cable or pulley.
If could be the pulleys under the frame, or the pulleys on top of the lower clam shell half, or could be the guide blocks missing or in bad shape, or could be the top clam shell is crooked and scraping down, but this would not seem to make described noise.
Could be the stuff at the fridge area is broken loose too.
Could be the steel block the hydraulic ram slides on is so rusty or it could be binding, keep that pole clean and greased.
