The fuel pump is in the gas tank, so any noise you get from the engine is not related to the pump. Test the pressure on the fuel rail, it should be 35psi with vacuum and about 43psi without. A whistling noise could be anything from a leaking gasket to a broken vacuum line to a partially siezed bearing.
