Cold engine Whining?

Does anyone living in a cold environment hear a whining coming from up front when you start your car in the morning? When my engine is cold soaked, it makes a whining noise, as soon as it is warm, it goes away. I took it to the shop. They replaced the power steering pump, and it still does it. So I just took it back today. I think it is just a tensioner or an idler pully, but I cant pin it down. Its pretty loud though.

No, still stock.

Only reason I asked is because sometimes some CAI's tend to sound almost like a very quiet Supercharger whine. And when the cars engine is cold from sitting all night, especially in cold weather, the noise from the CAI will be more noticeable.
