Started getting a strange sound from engine that almosed sounded like something rubbing but seemed to be a little slower pace than the camshaft would be turning. With a stethoscope it seemed to be behind the lower left plastic cover. As best as I can tell from the diagram that the area is in the location of the lower left silence shaft.
Question: Could the silence shat make a rubbing sound is it more likely the oil pump? The diagram I have seems to show the shaft going through the pump but don't know for sure. Any ideas of where to look first?
Thanks in advance...
