Whining noise when hitting gas

I have a 2012 Yaris CE hatchback with a 5MT and in the last month, when I give gas I hear a whining noise coming from the engine bay. Sometimes, it's not making the noise. It's making it in neutral and when accelerating. I told the dealership about it and when the mechanic was going to check it, it was not doing the noise (as always when you want to show something to someone...). Might it be the alternator or something like that? My car has 88 000 kms.

Is it more of a squealing or chirping by chance?

It is more like a squealing but nothing aggressive!

Does it happen when you run your AC? Loads of other questions but I'll leave it up to you to figure out now, but you have three main choices to choose from here it seems; the water pump, the ac compressor and the alt. I'm betting on water pump chirping as your bearings in the AC compressor shouldn't have gone bad this quickly. But, given your location they do use a lot of road salt and chemicals. Good luck.
