Default Induction noise but no induction kit!

Any ideas on this one?

MK3 2.5 V6 Mondeo (same engine as the ST24, Probe, Cougar 2.5 V6)

With the bonnet open today to check over the usual's I thought I would start her up and listen to the engine.....I have a lot of time on my hands at the moment

I could hear a very faint induction kind of noise. You know when you have an induction kit and press the accelerator hard it makes a kind of suction noise, well my car is making this noise but very very faint. A blip of the throttle and it gets a bit louder for all of 1 second, just like an induction kit.....But I dont have an induction kit!

It sounds like its coming from the upper inlet manifold. Is there anyway to test for leaks or whatever this noise could be?
