Noisy Espresso Machine?!

I wanted to know if anyone's experienced this problem before. Also, before I start dropping money on my Aurelia, I wanted confirmation if it's the water pump.

I bought a used NS Aurelia for a steal and overall it was in great condition. One thing however, when I got it hooked up and turned on is every time I pull a shot, the machine makes a loud whirring noise. It sounds like it could be the water pump that's just working, but it's definitely very audible and nasty sounding. Not only is this embarrassing, but it just sounds wrong.

Any suggestions?
