Sounds like my fan bearing did when it was failing on my 2000 lx, almost had an exhaust-y sound from the drivers seat. The bearing is built into the fan bracket. Not too expensive of a part($100ish on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0031GCUEY), but a pain to remove. For the fan bracket to clear when pulling it out, you have to rotate the a/c compressor out of the way just a bit which requires loosening a bolt you can’t see under the manifold. Additionally, the nuts holding the fan onto the pulley/bracket are pretty soft. I rounded one off and replaced them with stainless when I put it back together. Here’s a pretty good video on the timing belt maintenance that shows the fan bracket removal: https://youtube.com/watch?v=4dO8KW1-NQs&t=11m55s
Edit: bolts to nuts
