I've just gotten around to sealing up an old exhaust leak to get rid of some strange engine noises. Well, the exhaust leak tick is gone, but there is still an eerie noise coming from what seems like the head.

Ill try to explain it... At idle upon start-up the car does an intermitant "rolling whine". After its been running for a little bit, you can hear it after briefly revving the motor and it returns to idle. The sound occurs right before the motor returns to idle. It also causes a slight vibration.

I'll post the video, not sure how much help it will be. The quality isn't that great. But you can hear it at certain times.

I am no expert on internals, so I am trying to provide all the information i can on the forum to get some feedback. It's kind of hard to describe a noise though :sadwavey:. Please give any thoughts you might have.

hhmmm, check to see if the head is getting any oil pressure. check the oil pan any little dent can cause a problem.
