Hi,
In a lot of cases, the propeller shaft (drive shaft) has a part in this type of issue. Is the noise loud enough for you to record and upload for me to hear?
Also, I attached a pic below of the propeller shaft. Check for excessive play in the center mount. Also, at each end of the drive shaft is a rubber/flexible disc that can be worn. Inspect both.
Let me know what you find.
