this is normal I think. I have it on mine as well when I had mine done at 80 000k...
hmm...i nt sure if mines normal..everytime i start the engine 20-30secs later the sound appear...when i turn off the engine abt 5sec later the sound gone...my prob is somewhere around the intake manifold area,some say it the alternator...some say its the iacv...but if the alternator and the iacv is spoil, the car will not start or will break down soon...hmmm.....i brought mine to a few mechanics and they cant solve either
oooh.. I have this "noise", too.. and I also got it after a timing belt change. If someone finds a "cure" for this.. definitely, post up~~
cure is to have the timming(s) belt retentioned
over time as they streach the noise will go away.
its not normal for it to whine.

i'm not saying that if it happens to lots of people it is normal.... but it does suggest it might be 'ok' or at least some common....
yeh i think the timing belt is overtighten..
mine whine tooo but around the intake manifold area
did you install a jackson racing super charger by any chance?
