Yep, that sounds like bearings. I got a fan for mine off the net (Can't remember whether it was ebay or Amazon) for about £7 and replaced it before I found out it was the BIOS and W7.
BTW I looked on youtube for a tutorial on how to get the machine apart. Very useful as there were a number of hidden screws and a trick to get the keyboard out. You'll also need a miniature tool kit with the odd bits that laptops use. Mine had torx 8 screws as well as very shallow cross-heads.
