My first guess would be a belt.

If it is relatively regular, try some belt dressing/conditioner as it only cost like 2-3 dollars at Walmart. If that makes the problem go away then you know its the belt. Dressing/conditioner is only temporary though, so plan on changing the belt.
Where does it sound like it's coming from? Does it only happen when cold? All the time? Clutch have any effect? Have you checked the belt?

The noise is inbetween the battery and turbo it stops when the clutch is in
