my car did the same thing when i had my sohc it actually sounded like a baby turbo and every one thought i had an sr. My sound actually came from a chip in the fan. When the fan spent around it would catch wind turbulence and produce the sound.
kinda cool but i hated to tell people it was not and sr or turbo charged.
as far as the water pump i dont belive it can be that cause my car ran cool all the time. only cooling problems i had were related to my heater hose and bypass .

If you can reliably hear the noise at idle, take off the water-pump belt, start and run the car for just a minute or so. If theres no noise, its the water pump.
As an educated guesser, howl is usully text-book water pump. The pump will keep working for a while even while it howls, to a point.
