Default Loud Engine Whine

A loud noise is coming from my motor when its idling or in neutral, sometimes it goes away when I am moving but for the most part its there.

Sorry for the narration I had to send it to Tick and Monster to see what they thought as well

You sure you don't have a procharger on there?

If its not coming from the front then my guess would be throwout. Does it change when pressing the clutch?

Yes changed the throw out. Pulled the belts off and it still made the sound so its not a pulley. I think it may be something up front now taking another listen to it today

Took off the belt wasn't the idler. I think its the pilot after having my friend whose a mechanic listen to it. He thinks its the pilot because when I shut the engine off you can hear it slow down with the motor.
