Is it the higher pitch whirling noise?

Pulley? Did you here it while running without the serpentine belt?

If you are talking about a clacking/tapping noise.
Get a can of seafoam and put it in your oil and see it it quiets down.
you might have a lifter that is sticking.

One of my boxsters did this and it no longer makes any ticking/tapping noise. Although
I have not been driving it much since the oil change after the seafoam.
