Wow, David......you're still using the "smog pump"!! Seriously, you can
live very well without it and, in my opinion, your engine will thank you.
But, as a far as the noise goes, try using a 2 foot section of garden hose
(or similar rubber hose) as a stethoscope against the body of the pump. If
the bearings are rattling, you'll hear them loud-n-clear in your ear.
Or......disconnect the belt to the air pump and see if the noise goes away.

I believe that it is coming from the air pump (smog pump?)
