Strange sounds from engine bay

Pulled into the driveway and noticed a strange sound coming from the engine bay. I looked under hood briefly but then soon turned car off. I didn't get a good chance to really tell where it was coming from other than it seemed to be coming from the belt/pulley area. I've had the crank shaft pulley replaced about 2 year/10,000 miles ago and I remembered how it sounded before it went out. This sounds differently though, hard to describe but will try. Sounds simular to when you here a car in the distance with a dragging muffler. But, the sound is a little louder cause it's comming from under the hood of my car and I'm standing right there near it. My first thought was maybe my turbo had killed over. I don't think that's it. My second mind says it probably one of the pulleys. In the morning I will be able to get a better idea with the daylight. I need some clues if anyone has them please.
Also other things that may have been the cause, Maybe?
2/3 of the time the car idles at/near 1,400rpms. (ever since larger injectors)
A/C blower stuck on high position
