i have the noise and am gettin ready to do valves and gonna check the tensioners...have a bunch of jobs to do...
but thought maybe the persistant noise could possibly be a flywheel failing??
attached some threads referencing the 'noise'...

i have heard my noise between shifts...not sure if the noise is drown out by the motor under load or if it just returns at shift...

I searched around on the forum and didn't find much with regards to sticking starter solenoids, so I'm going to remove the starter tomorrow and hope that's the problem (cheap fix assuming it's a simple matter of regreasing the pinion shaft.
