so from how i described it, you all reckon it is defintaely external and not soemthing in the engone that is shafted?

i need to find some one to hold it steady while i have a look around later to try and get closer to where the noise is.

thanks for input

If it's at 3k and nowhere else, it's external, some sort of bracket is loose somewhere...
