Mine kind of sounds like that, I've been reading that it could be the tensioner pulley or the alternator going out.

Hopefully it's nothing major that may affect performance or health of the motor.

I think that the noise is probably coming from the power steering system. Mine was making the same noise until I changed the o-rings in the inlet and outlet hoses going to the pump.

That thread has step by step instructions which were very helpful and the video is also a useful guide if you want to change both o-rings just to be safe.
