No. Sounds like something is not right, like an idler bearing or something on the front of the motor.

But of course that is just a guess, the sound is pretty crude.

Hard to say, but it will need repair. The only way I even aimed at the front is from the relative location of the microphone.

It sounds to me like a bad idler pulley or some other bearing related to the serp belt.
