It sounds like one of the hoses are disconnected near the BAC. Does his car idle good?

hmm weird, could be water-pump, does it "scream" while his car is being droven? Does it get louder as rpm is increased? But if it's comming from the throttle body make sure all the hoses are connected and that you don't have a air leak between the TB and the intake pipe.

Remove all belts and start it for a few seconds. that will indicate if belts, pullies, water pump, etc.
