advice and help on my k11 whinning noise on idle

hi all,

i have a problem ... say the least... lol
my 1997 998cc k11 73k miles starting making a whinning noise on idle. with a funky burnt plastic smell to it. volt meter is reading 12.3v on idle. rev up it goes to about 13.1v. also ive tighten the tensioner.

im really hoping some of u micra people can shed the light on this. i managed to source an alternator of a 94 k11 micra also. however little did i realise there seemed to be a plug with 4pins and my current one seems to just have 2x 10mm nuts my guess is one live one earth... is there any chance i cud be using that alternator ? just earth it somewhere appropriate. any help wud be great?? thank u
