It's probably a loose belt. Check for deflection. If you press on the long run with you finger, can you get it to bend 5mm? If it's much looser, then that's the problem.

Another way to pinpoint the problem is get a rubber hose and stick it in your ear. With the other end, search for the source of the noise.
