Default Can You Identify This Rover Engine Noise?

Went to look at a used Discovery 1 last night. Heard this noise coming from under the truck near the engine on left side. Seems to be mostly out of sync with the engine RPM and it changes when I rev the engine, goes away for a few seconds, then comes back. Anyone know what it is?

Engine is trying out for a competitive tap dancing team?

I was thinking the same thing. NTC4602 lives on the Passenger side.

Fine, fine,. Heat shields, check the motor mount heat shield as well. Also had a broken exhaust that did something similar as well.
