Default New noise

Hey guys whats up.

Noticed this when I pulled into my garage after work , goes away when I put it in park, soon as I put it in R or D comes right back. Kind of sounds like its coming from the alternator. I checked all the metal lines under it and the metal air hose near the headers none of its touching or rattling so idk.. I can't find anything rattling, any of you ever get a noise like this?

Kinda strange that it goes away in park and rev'n it in park doesn't make it come back and rev'in it D makes it go away so very confused.


Heres the vid,

Did some hunting again today when I got home from work, whatever it is I can't see it. BUT it really really sounds like its coming from the alternator. I see no pullies wobbling or anything like that...

Also noticed now that when I shut her off and the motor shakes I hear it again.. so couldn't that indicate that its not mechanical?? somethings touching something or loose??
