I have experienced the "whistle".....turned out to be the alternator. Either a rebuild with new bearings/brushes/etc or replacement with a new/rebuilt unit PLUS new rubber/poly accessory mounts seems to cure it. I know this was a "shotgun" cure...because I never actually knew the root cause within the alternator or mounts!! Try listening with a stick or spraying some silicone lube on the mounts.....
