That sounds mechanical to me - like a PS pump. But I've seen catalyst media make strange rattling sounds similar to that when they start to go.

Sounds heat shieldish. But the way it reverberates at only very specific RPM with a sharp roll-off says otherwise. Broken catalyst rattling around in the cat?
