low grunt when put into drive and accelerating

So I've been noticing a low grunt somewhere on the drivers side behind the instrument cluster in the engine compartment. It just makes the sound when I put it in drive from neutral or just hit the gas a little bit to go from a stop. Its a quick little grunt sort of throaty sounding and then its gone, and doesn't make it any other time. When I put it in neutral and hit the gas, doesn't make a sound. My power steering fluid is good and just put on new belts.

Sorry for the rough description, don't really know how else to describe it.
I appreciate your time and help!
