Squeaking when cold start from fuel cell area

I have owned my 99 RS for about 2 weeks now, and I notice that at a cold start (sitting for ~3hrs at least) that for about 30-45 seconds following startup that I hear a "squeak, squeak, squeak" with about a second in between each noise. Almost like something pivoting or something. The only thing in that area I can think of that is powered/has moving parts is the fuel pump. This sound occurs regarldess of fuel level as well.

Anyone else had these symptoms? I am not seeing any adverse effects but the noise is a little embarrassing and would like to solve it.

Nah the noise does not change if I rev the motor and I have gotten out of the car and tried to identify it and it is definitely from the rear. Thanks for the suggest though.
