i reckon the exhaust manifold may be leaking, try tightning all your manifold bolts up - if this fixes it, your engine mountings are on their way out :D

its done 50,000 miles and its a 1.2 serviced regularly, the engine runs ok its that noise comin from the alternator i think, and the oil leaked yesterday from the part where the belt meets the engine so i think its that which caused it
