Try revving up your engine in neutral to see if the noise is present. If so, you can rule out the trans, diff and any other moving part. To me, it sounds like it you may have an exhaust leak. If you can have a friend help listen and try to pin point where the sound is with the hood up. Check to see you if you can see soot around the exhaust manifolds. You could have a stud that broke on one of the exhaust manifolds or any part of exhaust.

Also, put your car in gear and power brake it and see if the noise presents itself.
