Slight whine on slow acceleration?

My car seems to be making a slight whining noise when taking off (especially just after changing into 2nd, 3rd), can't pinpoint exactly where it comes from, but more the the left side of the car :(

Have thought about it again, could be noises from the driveshafts, have 2 new outer cv joints to go on, work pay just isn't allowing for labor at the moment :(

Is it a high pitched whine or more of a deeper whirring noise?

Is there a slight noise while idling and does it go away when the clutch is pressed?

Not 100% sure :( goes away on clutch in when I'm moving, but as i said mainly when taking off and keeping the revs low, stops at about 2.5, 3k rpm, definitely not an oil problem but :lol: remember the clicking noise with the old motor since it burned through roughly 1 litre a week :lol:
