Engine Front Noise
Could be a number of things but definately is important to check out. Start with fluids make sure they're full. Then see if you can isolate the sound to the engine or one of the belt driven accessories hanging off the engine. Use a 2X2 --- one end to the engine or other part and the othre to your ear ( the mechanic's stethoscope before we got fancy.)
By all means if you can't find the trouble get it into a shop and ask a pro to have a look.
