Sounds like the timing belt tension spring is bad how many miles does also whine while you drive or just when idling?

If i was you take your car to the dealer or it's modified go to a trust worthy mechanic and have them take a look at it because to me it sound's like the tensioner spring or the timing belt is teeth or worn down if breaks go by to your motor go asap.
