Yeah, I knew that but I did waste some time trying nylon washers on the mounts. It ended up being the BOV not having enough clearance on the underside of the bar. While standing over the engine bay I couldn't really see the thing...it was obvious once I kneeled and looked at it outside where there's more light.

And how can a fuel filter be noisy? And how can you hear it above the engine noise?
Anything that vibrates on or near the firewall is audible from the driver's seat at idle. Pretty frustrating to locate these sounds, actually...you pop the hood and listen and hear/feel nothing. You then sit back down in the driver seat and it's as obvious as all get-out. I wasn't the one who figured out it was the filter (I never would have thought of that), it was Ron. He quieted it down quite a bit by adding some rubber.
