It could be the electric motor mounts if the car is an automatic, or it could be the ABS unit.

you will have to try to zero in on where the sound is coming from.

If this is a 2001 AE edition it is manual. I know I have heard that sound before...I just can't recall what it was.

As Dennis said try and narrow it down. Listen closely on one side of the engine (front, passenger side) and then the other side (rear, driver side) to see if it may be coming from the pulleys or something else.

It sounds to me like a pulley winding down that has a bad bearing.

That'll make short work in narrowing it down.
