So warmed the bike up a few minutes (it doesn't make the sound when completely cold), pulled the plug, and the noise is still there. I'm mystified, mainly because it's impossible to pinpoint where the noise is coming from. I've heard from one person that says that have the same noise, and has continued to ride it with no sign of mechanical issues, so I'm inclined to do the same for the time being. I'll see about getting a mechanics stethoscope to help locate the sound.

Rear brake pads squeaking when the bike moves around  while kicking it ?

FYI, turned out to be the water pump.

As I suggested, try some new anti freeze of the correct type. You might also try dropping in a small amount of silicon fluid if the noise persists. It might also be a sign that there is wear in the bearing, worth removing the pump and checking thoroughly?
