Not sure but I have had good luck using a piece of plastic hose as a stethoscope: just hover it around with one end in your ear and bring the hose end very close to different parts in the general area. You will no doubt find the place where the sound is loudest.

That's what I thought, any way to repair the vacuum pump? Or I just need to replaced?

Is it working and just loud? Or is it broken? Broken you replace it of course, but just loud? Are you good with small electric motors?
