Its just the filter on the Secondary Air Injection Pump, the rest of it being a pump.
It whirs until the the engine warms up, at which point you hear a click (the relay turning it off) and the revs drop.
Just there to add air into the exhaust to burn any extra fuel off in the cat (save it clogging and blowing up).
Not required if u have a de-cat!

Its secondary air injection, for getting the cat upto temp quick when the engines cold, only runs for a few mins.
