Default High pitched whistling noise

I'm having problems with my 05 Honda Accord EX Coupe.
Manual transmission 2.4L 4 cylinder.
It's got 33,000 miles on it.
My car is making a a high pitch whistling noise, a continuous beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep that increases in pitch and volume with RPM.

Noise is present when:
-Driving above 30 mph and the pitch gets higher and the noise louder as I pick up the speed.
-The noise is present when I'm in any gear going at a speed higher than 30 mph (for example cruising down the highway at 65) or accelerating from 30mph (for example while accelerating from 30 mph to 65 mph).
-It's the loudest when the RPM's around 2000-2750.
-It's continuous and doesn't go away over time (even after hours on the road).
-It's somewhat faint but I can definitely hear it, on a noise scale of 1 to 10 I'd say a 2 or 3.

Noise goes away completely when:
-I push down on the clutch and cruise while moving at any speed.
-There is no whistling noise when in neutral and revving up the engine.
-The noise dies down a lot (but not completely) when I let go of the gas

Noise chirps temporarily when:
Sometimes it chirps when the road condition changes and I go over soft bumps but it'd come right on a level road.

The noise is there even with the audio off.

Would anyone know what is making the noise and how much it would cost to fix it?

Thanks.
