Mine's been making a very similar noise, but coming from the right... What scares me is that the Hard Drive, is on the right side, and I don't believe that any fans are, at least in the 3,1...
You sure there's no bee or hamster trapped inside? Co'z it's apple, so naturally rodents (I hear a squeak) and insects will go inside it looking for a fruit.
Wow! That's kinda like the famous MacBook Pro "moo!", but on steroids! I'm a MPB owner myself; got mine in May '06. MacBook SLOW, is more like it! Haha! The folks at Apple should be ashamed of themselves if they can't admit what the rest of us know all too well—many MBPs have the same problems: screen whine, the "moo," warping, lid not shutting, "exploding" batteries, etc., not to mention slow video thanks to Apple intentionally underclocking the graphics card.
take it to the apple store and have them replace the machine... force your hand. tell them it is a big/common problem that will not get fixed just by sending it in... show them all the videos on youtube with this same problem. it will work. you will get a new machine. i did. good luck.
its funny "JDIDDY27" i did nothing but use my comp normally... i do take "offence" and i dont get mad, i get even.
if you go on the apple discussions page you will find it was a common yet un-announced problem, the mother boards were having. due to heat and the capstan the fan would spin on, was on bending slightly.
if it was your way they never would have replaced the computer.
it was the left fan main logic board... and it did it again after the MLB was supposedly replaced. the dumb asses either didnt do it right or didnt do anything at all to solvethe problem.

Oh come on guys, let's not get excited about broken fans, look at my macbook pro:
P.s. early 2008
I am doing hardcore video encoding with it and I use SMC fan control at 6000 rpm for hours and hours and hours (6000rpm is max, default is 2000)
And I play GTA 4 for hours and hours and hours and I have Smc fan control running at 6000rpm...
and the bloody fan does not brake!!! I wanna brake it to get a new one within warranty, so that it has a long life...
SMC.fc. works with a trick under Windows!
