Default super nasty sound

well i recently bought a 95 Civic DX and there is a pretty nasty sound coming from the motor.. my friends say that it sounds like one of those everglades propeller boat fans...



ya pretty embarassing BUT anyway does anyone know what this sound could be??

my brother said it could be a spun bearing or my crank pulley but i have no idea... any help would be appreciated.. thanks

Can you describe the noise any better? Does it sound like a knock, screech, grinding noise? If you spun a bearing, you would hear a very distinctive knocking noise coming from the bottom end.
