John, that sounds VERY much like a HB in the early death stages. When you rev the engine and hold it up a bit, does the sound go away?
Didn't someone warn you about that and tell you to replace it regardless?
About 3 or 4 months ago? ![Roll Eyes](https://www.gmforum.com/gm/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)

Say Hi to Mom for me, and tell her I'll bring some good gourmet coffee next time to replace the 44 pounds I devoured while Dad was hospitalized.![Very Happy](https://www.gmforum.com/gm/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
That is most definitely an external noise. Not internal to the engine.
