Whining noise from engine bay
I'm getting a whine that increases with the rpms. If I put my ear right on top of where the Power Steering pump is the sound seems to come from there, but I just replaced the pump a few thousand miles ago.
Any ideas

I assume you checked the fluid? Timing belt?
Could be a lot of things. Is it due for a timing belt or tensioner? How about the serpentine belt tensioner? Both of those will cause the same noise.
Does the sound change when you turn the steering wheel?
