Car has 144K miles. Only work that has been done includes:
1. Fuel injectors and spark plugs replaced
I have tried to capture the noise in this video. Noise is there even with AC off.

What could it be? No error codes. Engine oil looks fine although the engine does consume about a quart of oil every 2 months.
I suspect that some pully bearing or water pump issue?
Hard to hear when engine is cold. But can hear it 1 min after engine starts.
There is a slight oil leak from the power steering system. But turning the steering does not change anything about the noise.
