Default Supercharger noises and water pump

So i got my supercharger added onto my 05 TC about 11 months ago. There is approximately 1 month left of warranty on the S/c provided by Longo Toyota in El Monte. The supercharger just recently began to make a higher pitch whining noise much like an electric car or Wall-e (pixar movie, lol).

I took the car to the dealer and they said the sounds were normal, however this higher pitch noise JUST recently started 11 months after using the supercharger. Also they notified me of a leaking water pump and my coolant was all over the side of the engine bay.

I totally forgot to ask the dealer but, would the water pump leaking be covered by warranty and be a result of the supercharger? And also is anybody hearing a loung whining noise from their s/c? I've heard the noise in a video posted on one of the threads but i can't seem to find it again.
