Looking for knocking noise driver side

Sounds like we possibly have a winner. People need to read the replies to their questions.
So true. I did kind of got hung up on that rocker thing and I am convinced that this is all about the headers. Well almost, the TQ seemed to run smoother than the motor is running right now and may be causing a vibration. Either way, it is pointing to a problem down here. I scratched a little paint with my wrench while putting pressure between these two pipes. It stopped the noise temporarily.

Take a chunk of rubber hose like fuel or heater hose and put it to your ear, and move it around that area. You'll hear it and help pinpoint
 
Fixed the noise lol. Couldn't get any kind of hose in there. I got my old ars under car this morning and found the culprit. Motor cold (not running) I hit the pipe with the heel of my hand and it is definitely there. It's crazy loud. I thought about trying to spread those 2 apart some, but might make things worse. The carb needs attention, but that's another story.
