Default Noise at idle

So whenever I'm sitting at a light with my car idling, there is a vibrating noise that is driving me absolutely insane. When I'm sitting there, the vibration occurs, if I put it in park or neutral, it stops. The second I press the gas, it also stops. I've changed the spark plugs, the mounts, and the noise is still there. It seems like plastic or something that is vibrating coming from the driverside in the front. There's a video of it, you can faintly hear it, and it stops when I press the gas to go forward. Any input would be great, I'm going insane hearing it.

Check your exhaust rubber hangers.
