I don't know that it is a bearing, but based on what you first said it could be, or just as easily the fuel pump. Just in general and not Nomad specific, sometimes when a roller, needle or ball bearing goes bad it can temporarily jam and then the race will start to spin on the shaft or housing. Stopping the rotation could temporarily un jam the bearing and it will stop spinning on the shaft or housing.
If the noise does not change with RPM, you can pretty much rule out the engine and suspect the pump IMO.
