Sounds like a pulley to me; idler, water pump, or power steering pump pulley.

if it's not the pullies check your iac valve. i have had a few of them cause howling sounds above idle and at high rpm's 99 percent of the time they howl it is at or near idle but i have seen a few cause the howling above 3000.
