Default buzz at start

sometimes when i start the car the engine makes a sort of buzz sound for about a second immediately after starting, almost sounds like a slight grind, but i cant imagine what it would be. my oil levels are fine and look clean, what could it possibly be? ill try to post a sound bite later. its loud enough to sound like it could be coming from outside the block possibly. i know this isnt much to go on but i just wanted to see if anyone else has had this happen before.

no known solution yet.
