I was talking to a diesel mechanic friend of mine today about the noise that you were experiencing. The first thing out of his mouth was did he check the oil pressure to make sure that it is correct and that he has enough oil in the motor. I started to chuckle but he said he was dead serious. So you might wanna check that out.

Wouldn't a lack of oil pressure be heard in the engine room?

Re: New noise......
I had a loose shaft zinc that made an intermittent noise matching your description. Loud in the aft stateroom and then would disappear.
