Get yourself a length of tubing / a straw and put one end to your ear.

Point the other end at various components, you can use the tube/straw a bit like a stethoscope and it will help you isolate which component the sound is coming from.

Don't use anything metal though and (if it's a nylon straw) don't touch any of the components with it.

You never know, it might help.....
