Hello,
I think it will be helpful if you can upload a video so we can hear the noise.
From what you are describing it could be due to the starter staying engaged longer than designed and the noise you are hearing is just that.
Does it make a difference with the whining noise if the steering wheel is turned?
Another possibility could be the power steering pump making the noise.

Please let me know a few more details of what you are experiencing or if you have any questions.
I have attached both the power steering pump and starter diagrams below for your reference.
Thank you.
