I think you may have a manifold gasket leak that is slight.

Either that or your heat shield on the rear exhaust manifold near the fire wal is loose.

Just my two cents.

Yea sounds like a breach somewhere in the exhaust system for sure. No other way that I can see to identify it other than to stick your head as close to all areas of the exhaust system and see what you can hear.
