The harmonic balancer pulley squeals like a belt, so that may not be the problem. I am assuming that this noise is audible when you are not moving.
OK, here's a hunch, how about an intake air leak? Maybe a hose fitting or a grommet is leaking air when cold but seals up when the car is warm. The only thing i don't like about this idea is the fact that the noise is not there at idle(high vacuum). So I'd look upstream from the throttle plate to the air cleaner.
For noises while stationalry, the only other thing I can think of is a noisy clutch release bearing if you have a manual. This noise would vary depending on position of the clutch.
If the noise is rotational(shile moving) and not brake pad vibration(squeal), then maybe the brake dust shield got bent slightly during the brake job and is intermittently rubbing against the hub or rotor.
