Low end whine

Location
ATX
Hi all, I’ve not been driving this in the last year, I run it on a back road about once per month, the car was hit but did not impact this low end whine with rpms cominv from engine bay. My thoughts are pulley tensioner, or bearings in harmonic balancer(?) doesn’t affect drivability but it just sounds downright nasty. I have a slew of other things to fix on this which I have not had time to do, including headlamps the fog lamps (yes still) the rear hatch, the transmission (grinds going into second) and the interior door panel. Yes all kinds of things but I have had some time to save up for tools etc and the time is now, I just wanted to know if anyone else has heard this. (Btw not the squeaking I mean the low end almost supercharger type noise)
Thanks in advance!
