did you recently install a short/cold air intake?

not to fully hijack..... but ive noticed lately a whinning sound coming from engine bay at about 2K rpms driving it low gears 1,2 and sometimes 3rd all around 2K rpms... push in the clutch and it still whines at 2K rpms range.... but it only does it sometimes. i havent had time to try and localize it yet. but it is anoying. i know my oil is good, the tranny fluid might be alittle low not to positive but with the clutch in when stoped doesnt make me think its that.
i know i need to change the timing belt on it but im puting that off for another month to help my parents reclear coat there motor home and help pack for them.
