Hi there,

This may be an exhaust noise, these Toyota's do have a problem cracking exhaust manifolds as well, what you will need to do is remove the tin heat shield from the manifold and check for cracks and dirty exhaust stains around the manifold to head gasket, you can use a length of hose as a stethoscope to listen to the flange and around the manifold gasket this will pick up any leaks easily, start here.
