Bad Oil Pump?

My '06 seems to be making more noise then usual. It recently started making a buzzing sound, sort of like when the supercharger first starts up in the morning but not that loud. At first I though it might be a bad bearing somewhere, but after getting under the car I found the noise coming from the front of the oil pan. I'm guessing that is where the oil pump is located?

Any one ever have a oil pump go bad on them?

that was my first thought, so i dropped the belly pan to take a look. As soon as i got my head under the car I could clearly hear the noise coming from the pan. I can even feel the vibration when i put my hand on the pan. Wish it was as simple as the the IC pump.
