Probably the water pump.  Some are a bit louder then others.

Well pop the belts of, see if the sound is gone then spin and listen to the alternator/ idler pulleys if it has any and feel for roughness and listen for untoward noise

Well with the belt of did the noise go away? If so keep looking at the rotating parts for play roughness and so forth
