Thanks for all the input. I'm patiently awaiting my GEBA pump to arrive in the mail from FCP so I can start working on this and get to rev'ing over 4k.
I had a VW gearhead friend take a look at it this weekend and we think it might just be the pump and/or tensioner making the noise. We used a mechanics stethoscope but it's hard pin pointing it out using it at such a high RPM (especially with a belt driven fan)
I'm really curious what brand the PO replaced it with back in 2010. I'm friends with the PO on FB and she found the receipt- Apparently they replaced the water pump, belt and thermostat but never the tensioner :tsk:
