Sure its just you fan clutch slipping probably, take the serpintine belt off when the engine is hot and see if the noise is still there, if its not get the viscous clutch replaced.

The fan control module? Thats only for the electronic fans, i really doubt that.
You can take the belt off by compressing the tensioner and rolling the belt around the fan to get it out.
