Where is the battery located in the 2011 13" MBP?

Just trying to diagnose a problem here... and is it possible that the battery could make a high pitch humming sound?

Unlikely.

The battery is housed behind the back cover, or underside cover.

I mean like is it underneath the keyboard or the trackpad or...?

The battery is located here (bottom of pic) under the trackpad/palm rests:

Under the trackpad, and out to the left edge of the computer (if you're sitting at it using it). Batteries don't really make noise, even when faulty. More likely, you're hearing a fan, drive, or other component.

Oh okay thank you.

So it's more toward the back of the laptop where the MacBook Pro logo is?

No, toward the front, under the trackpad/palm rests, as I said. The fans, vents, CPU and GPU are located near the hinge.
