When you replaced the alternator did you also check the idler pulley and the belt tensioner pulley, both of those bearings tend to whine when they're close to going completely bad?
A mechanic's stethoscope work very well pinpointing such whines and other noises, just be very careful when using one near moving pulleys and belts etc., but it can be done if you watch what your doing.
