Mrs. Znavor - It could be the A/C compressor, the water pump, the tensioner, the two idler pulleys, or the power steering pump. It will be almost impossible to troubleshoot without actually tracing the sound down at the car as it is running.
I would suggest some time with a mechanic's stethoscope - or some time with a competent mechanic - to find the source of the growling sound.
Disclaimer: If you DO go for a water pump, let me know - I bought one for mine about two months before the surge tank blew, and never put it on, so it's sitting at the house collecting dust.
