Unfortunately I haven't got a tensioner compressor, so can't take the tension off the serpentine belt, but, I had a good listen to the noise this morning using a piece of garden hose looped around the back of the alternator so I could listen to the pump, which is bit buried, and the noise is definitely coming from the pump. So... i have bought a second hand one and will get that fitted, lets hope its OK. In this case its easier to locate the whine with the hose, with a stethoscope, or a screwdriver just about everything sounds rough.
I did take the cap off the reservoir again and can see that the return flow is strong, but free of air bubbles. This time I didn't rev the engine, so it didn't shoot all over the place.
