Question a sort of squeek, air escaping noise?? any ideas?

only noticed this noise as i had the bonnet up, at first i thought maybe a turbo whoosing air noise, but then it sounded more like a squeek like something needs a drop of oil.

happens with a small dab on the accelerator, a little blip, and just before the revs rise it gives a little noise. i took a clip of it, sounds like a duck in the video.

it's not on the throttle linkage/wire bit my fingers are on because with the engine turned off you can pull it and it's quiet.

cars ok and running fine, just wondering if anything needs a bit of oil/greasing? bit of a mystery and it's the sort of daft little thing that'll drive me mad!

any ideas guys?

cheers, Paul

by the way the engine doesn't sound that bad in real life! for some reason the camera has picked up what sounds like a bag of bolts
