Does it vary with engine speed? If not, it may be the secondary air injection pump. If it does, try removing the serpentine belt, then start the engine and see if the noise persists. It's safe to runt he engine for a minute or two, but not much longer as you'll have no alternator (thus draining the battery) and no water pump. If the noise stops, then it;s on one of the belt-driven pulleys - try spinning them by hand to see if you find a rough one.
