Jimny making a new sound

Hi, my 2006 Jimny has started whirring at me above 2000RPM. Initially I thought transfer case, because it actually sounds like using 2WD-L, however it's coming from the front end, it's maybe worth mentioning too that this particular car has a appetite for serpentine belts, and has had 3 replacement belts and a new Crankshaft pulley. The transmission feels sturdy and doesn't miss a beat however the clutch is on its last legs. 
Any ideas?? 

Here's a video:

Have you had a new belt since the crank pulley was changed? Was it both belts or just one?

Alternator  (does it change if you turn headlamps off/on)

The failure of Alternator bearings is a secondary cause of belt failure.

Yes, both new belts, and prior to that, a new alternator.
